Abstract
An electrode assembly for application to a patient's skin comprises an electrically insulating substrate 13 bearing at least two spaced apart electrodes 18, and an electrically conductive layer 14 on the substrate which covers the electrodes and which in use of the assembly is applied to the patient's skin. The electrical impedence of the region of the layer 14 overlying each electrode 18 is less than the electrical impedence between the electrodes laterally through the layer.
