Abstract
The invention relates to a telemetric transmitter unit comprising electrodes for placement against the body of a person wearing the telemetric transmitter unit for detecting heartbeat signals of said person. The plastic members joining the transmitter and electrodes together so as to form an integrated casing for the transmitter unit has a bottom side exposing the surface of the electrodes, whereby the electrodes are provided with holes, each hole being associated to a fluid channel leading to an opening in the casing. A fluid applied to an opening in the casing flows through the hole in the electrode, thus wetting, at least in the part of the body lying underneath the electrode, any cloth or garment on the wearer as well as the skin, in order to provide a conductive path for the heart beat signals between the skin of the wearer and the electrode through said cloth or garment.
