Abstract
A biomedical electrode for an electrocardiograph or similar device is provided. The biomedical electrode includes a disposable electrode having an electrically conductive gel layer and a reusable leadwire adapter having the relatively expensive metallic conductive material. The disposable electrode interfaces with the reusable leadwire adapter through the adhesive characteristics of the gel layer. The reusable leadwire includes a stud member which snaps into a standard leadwire connector.
