A silver-silver chloride skin electrode is prepared by coating a composition containing silver grain, silver chloride grain and glass frit on a substrate made of a spinel type crystalline oxide such as ferrite and sintering the coated layer. The electrode is durable to an electroconductive paste.

Silver-silver chloride electrode

In a skin electrode for connecting monitoring equipment to the surface of the skin which is separable into two assemblies: a base assembly adapted to be mounted to the surface of the skin and having a sensing element, and; a terminal assembly adapted to be releasably coupled with the base assembly and having a lead for connection to the monitoring equipment, an improvement wherein the terminal assembly is provided with a magnet while the base assembly is provided with a ferromagnetic element, whereby the releasable coupling and electrical connection of the assemblies may be ensured by the action of the magnet.

Skin electrode

An improved electrode for living body is proposed which is excellent in the stability and reliability in detecting and transmitting the electric signals generated in a living body by the physiological electric phenomena such as electrocardiographic, electromyographic and electroencephalographic signals. The electrode of the invention is characterized by the material which is mainly a titanium hydride or a mixture of a titanium hydride with silver chloride optionally combined with a metal salt with basicity and a carbon powder, e.g. graphite.
