Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An electrode assembly that includes an electrically conductive layer, a first impedance reduction system, and a second impedance reduction system. The electrically conductive layer forms an electrode portion of the electrode assembly and a first surface to be placed adjacent a person's skin. The first impedance reduction system is configured to dispense a first amount of an electrically conductive gel onto the first surface of the electrically conductive layer in response to a first activation signal. The second impedance reduction system is configured to dispense a second amount of the electrically conductive gel onto the first surface of the electrically conductive layer in response to a second activation signal.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method of reducing impedance between a defibrillation electrode and a patient's skin, comprising acts of: sending a first activation signal to a first impedance reduction system configured to dispense, in response to receipt of the first activation signal, a first amount of a first electrically conductive gel onto a surface of the defibrillation electrode that is configured to be disposed adjacent the patient's skin; and sending a second activation signa…
