Abstract

A method of making an electrosurgical patient electrode includes the steps of initially providing an electrode body having a recess defined therein with an electrically conductive bottom surface, and then casting a quantity of uncured hydrogel material into the recess. The gel material is sufficient in volume to fill the recess and is subsequently cured in situ.
