Abstract

An electrode configuration and its method of manufacture. The electrode includes a pad of material having a first end, an opposite second end, a top surface and a conductive bottom surface. At least one fold line is provided in the pad of material between the first end and the second end. The pad of material is folded over along the fold lines to create a folded form. The folded form has a flap element that extends from one of the folds to the second end of the pad of material. The flap element enables a clip to attach to the pad of material without peeling the remainder of the pad of material from a person's skin.
