Abstract

1300598 Electrodes SHERWOOD MEDICAL INDUSTRIES Inc 24 Nov 1970 [28 Nov 1969] 55858/70 Heading A5R An electrode 10 for establishing electrical contact with the skin of a patient comprises: a housing 25 defining a chamber 30 having a fluid opening; an electrolytic fluid contained within said chamber; electrically conductive means 35 extending through said housing and into contact with the fluid in said chamber to allow external electrical connection to the fluid; a cover 50 closing said chamber along said fluid opening to enclose said fluid within said chamber, said cover being absorbent to said fluid, so that when the electrode is attached to the body (see Fig. 1, not shown) with the cover 50 adjacent the skin, electrical contact may be established between the skin and an external conductor 18. The electrical conductor 35 may have a hollow shaft 36 into which a plug 20 on the end of conductor 18 may be inserted and an impermeable sealing member 54 may overlie the cover 50 in order to protect the electrolyte from evaporation and the effects of light. The electrode may be used for iontophoresis, and in a specific example two electrodes, one containing a 0.5% solution of pilocarpine nitrate and the other containing a 1% solution of sodium nitrate are used for pilocarpine iontophoresis in order to induce localized sweating.
