Abstract
A medical electrode provides the ability to simultaneously connect at least two medical-electrical monitoring or testing instruments to an electrode positioned at a specific location on a patient's body. The electrode includes a conductive layer with a tab portion extending from a body. The body includes an aperture which is sized and configured to receive a conductive post of the electrode. The tab portion extends outwardly from the body with the aperture receiving the conductive post of the electrode such that the tab portion provides an attachment point for a conventional clip of an auxiliary piece of electrical instrument. The tab portion of the electrode does not interfere with the attachment of an electrical connector of a primary electrical instrument to the conductive post of the electrode.
