20100016703 | BIO-ELECTRODE POSSESSING A HYDROPHILIC SKIN-CONTACTING LAYER AND AN ELECTROLYTE SUBSTANCE - A bio-electrode for conveying electrical signals to, or from a body is constructed with two components, a pre-laminated member and a re-usable electrode assembly. The pre-laminated member comprises a first substrate layer and a second electrolyte-containing layer. The substrate contacts the body and is constructed of a material that is biocompatible, hydrophilic and inherently electrically semi-conductive or conductive. The electrolyte-containing layer, which does not contact the body, is composed of an adhesive, electrolytic hydrogel. Small amounts of moisture and electrolytes from the hydrogel diffuse into the substrate thereby reducing and stabilizing the substrate's electrical resistance. The pre-laminated member can be used with existing re-usable electrode assemblies. | 01-21-2010 |
20100056896 | TAB ELECTRODE AND LEAD WIRE FOR CONNECTING TO THE SAME - A disposable tab electrode has core elements that include an adhesive conductive laminate layer and a logo sticker layer with a penetrating hole for contacting a sensor electrode. A protecting film is put around both ends of the core elements. As a result, the disposable tab electrode can be made inexpensively, stored hygienically for a long time and used easily. A lead wire for connecting to the tab electrode has a projection on one end of a sensor electrode that is adhered onto the conductive laminate layer of the disposable tab electrode. The projection is fixed to the lead wire body by a fixing member. As a result, expensive Ag—AgCl electrode sensors can be used repeatedly. The lead wire can have a nipper self-contained or integrated with the lead wire body to prevent the lead wire from separating from the disposable tab electrode during use. | 03-04-2010 |
20100069736 | EMG Electrode Apparatus And Positioning System - A system for detecting and analyzing electrical activity in the anatomy of an organism underlying an electrode array provides signals corresponding to electrical activity adjacent each electrode.

The system includes electrode structures and methods for producing and attaching electrode arrays to the organism. The exemplary form of the invention is used in connection with the diagnosis of muscle activity in the lower lumbar regions of humans. Levels of muscle activity detected are analyzed by correlation with the muscular structures underlying the electrode array. Forms of the invention may be used in other applications. | 03-18-2010 |

The metal microneedles in the microneedle array chip of the invention have firm structures to avoid fracture, and have sharp tips to facilitate puncturing. The maximal puncturing depth of the microneedles is easy to adjust and control. The microneedles in the array have good uniformity, and are safe and reliable to use. The hollow microneedles, like conventional syringe needles, have lateral openings, and thus can effectively avoid the blockage of the infusion poles by skin, thereby facilitating rapid diffusion and absorption of drugs, and resulting in significant therapeutic effects. | 09-29-2011 |
