US Patent 11766558 Biomedical electrode with anti-microbial properties

A biomedical electrode for electrically contacting a user's skin includes a carrier layer, a backing layer, an electrical lead, a conductive member, and a gel contact member. The backing layer is disposed on the carrier layer. The electrical lead is positioned at least in part below the carrier layer. The conductive member is coupled to the electrical lead. The gel contact member is electrically coupled to the conductive member for directly contacting the user's skin. The gel contact member is electrically conductive. The gel contact member includes a gel combined with an anti-microbial agent.
