Embodiment Construction

[0054] refer to Figures 1 to 6 , the electrolyte liner and system according to the present invention will be jointly described.

[0055] The electrolyte liner 1 of the present invention is provided for use with electrodes 2 for transcutaneous electrical stimulation. The electrolyte liner 1 comprises a flexible porous sheet of material containing a predetermined amount of liquid or gel electrolyte per unit area. The sheet is shaped to cover the skin-facing surface 21 of the electrode 2 . In use, the electrolyte liner 1 is placed on the skin-facing surface 21 of the electrode 2 and provides electrolyte for conducting electrical current between the electrode 2 and the user's skin.

[0056] The flakes are relatively thin, preferably, characterized by a dry grammage between 40 g / m 2 up to 100g / m 2 or between 30 μm and 400 μm in thickness, or more preferably between 50 μm and 200 μm.

[0057] In the presently described embodiment, as figure 1 As shown, the electrolyte liner 1...

Abstract

An electrolyte liner for use with an electrode for transcutaneous electrical stimulation, the liner comprising a flexible porous sheet of material containing a predetermined amount of liquid or gel electrolyte per unit area, said sheet being shaped to cover a skin facing surface of said electrode.

Description

field of invention [0001] The present invention relates to electrolyte linings for transcutaneous electrical stimulation electrodes. Background of the invention [0002] Getting the current through the skin involves switching between the flow of electrons in the stimulator system's wires and metal electrodes and the flow of ions in the body. This conversion occurs in part through electrolysis, so an electrolyte is needed at the interface between the metal (or other conductive material) electrodes and the skin. Ion transport across the skin is facilitated by sweat glands and hair follicles, as well as by extracellular pathways through the stroma of stratum corneum cells that make up the stratum corneum. Current transfer into the skin also occurs through capacitive coupling on the stratum corneum, a thin layer with relatively low electrical conductivity and dielectric properties. In transdermal stimulation, it is generally desirable to minimize the current density, as this r...
