Abstract
Apparatus for transferring electrical energy to and from living tissue comprises a glove of thin, flexible elastomeric material, which carries electrodes, electrically connected to a connector disposed at the cuff of the glove. The connector permits the electrodes to be electrically connected to a source of electrical energy or to a load, so that electrical energy may be applied to or drawn from living tissue.
