Abstract From the Canadian patent

The electrode assembly includes at least one pre-gelled biopotential electrode having an electrolyte gel (26) in contact with the electrode element (24). An electrically conductive component (28) is removably mounted to electrically connect both the electrolyte gel and the electrode element conductor to complete a conductive bridge therebetween. The conductive element is inert relative to the electrolyte to avoid degradation of the electrolyte.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed November 2, 1992 and granted August 4, 1998. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended November 2, 2012.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by November 2, 2014.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
