Abstract

A sensor assembly for the measurement of electrophysiological signals and including a conductive bridge is provided. In one embodiment, the conductive bridge is provided by an expandable member with an absorbent material attached to one end. An aperture extends through the expandable member, forming a cavity well. Addition of a conductive medium to the cavity well allows the conductive bridge to provide a conductive pathway between an electrode and a patient's skin.
