ADAPTER FOR CONNECTION OF MONOPOLAR CARDIOELECTRODE TO CARDIOSTIMULANT Russian patent published in 2002 - IPC

FIELD: medical equipment, in particular, devices for electric stimulation of cardiac muscle. SUBSTANCE: the adapter has a proximal part in the form of an insulation body with packing rings and a male contact for connection to the cardio-stimulant. The distal part has a flexible insulation tube, whose cavity accommodates a spiral current-conducting wire. The body with an inlet for the cardioelectrode connector is fastened on the end of the tube. The body cavity accommodates a contact bush with a central hole and a threaded hole for the contact screw. The contact bush is connected to the spiral wire by resistance welding. To provide leak-proofness and prevent distortion of the programmed electric pulses of the cardiostimulant, a ring member is positioned on the body surface. EFFECT: enhanced service life of cardioelectrodes. 1 dwg
