Abstract
A gel deployment device for use with an electrotherapy system includes a substrate and a conductive surface mechanically coupled to the substrate. The device includes one or more gel reservoirs disposed on the substrate, each surrounding an open center portion, and a fluid pressure source in fluid communication with the one or more gel reservoirs. At least one frangible seal is disposed within the open center portion and configured to release a volume of conductive gel from the one or more gel reservoirs to the conductive surface.
