Abstract
A medical electrode is provided for detecting and transmitting electric pulses from the body surface of a patient to an electric pulse processor. The medical electrode includes an outer carrier and at least one inner carrier (). The outer carrier and the inner carrier are connected at a defined number of geometrically distributed points (). The points () form an outer edge () of the inner carrier and are perforated, so that the outer carrier and the inner carrier can be separated at these points (). An adhesion area () is formed on the underside of the outer carrier () and of the inner carrier for adhering the medical electrode to the patient body surface. A contact element () is provided with a conductive area arranged concentrically to the contact element () for establishing contact with the body surface of the patient. The contact element () and the conductive area () are arranged within the inner carrier.
