Multi-electrode type electrocardiographic electrode structure
First Claim
1. A multi-electrode type electrocardiographic electrode comprising:
- a base member made of non-woven cloth;
a plurality of electrodes and leads provided on said base member;
said electrodes and leads being integrally formed by printing on or impregnating said base member within a liquid conductor, said leads being connected to individual electrodes;
an electrolyte material provided on said electrodes and serving to reduce the resistance of the skin of a living body; and
an insulating adhesive material layer provided on said base member to alternate with said electrodes whereby said electrocardiographic electrode structure is held in close contact with the skin of the living body.
