Abstract
A specialized clip and method for electrically and mechanically joining a highly-flexible electrical conductor and a fine metallic mesh or screen for use in medical electrodes. The clip is in the form of an inverted U and has a portion of the wire mesh folded thereinto such that upon insertion of the flexible electrical conductors into the channel of the U-shaped clip containing the mesh the clip may be mechanically crimped to bring about intimate contact between the flexible conductors and the mesh. The mesh portion is then welded to the main body of the wire mesh and the wire mesh may then be subsequently used in the manufacture of implantable medical electrodes, for example, defibrillation electrodes.
