Abstract
Abstract A SAFETY LEAD SYSTEM FOR THE TRANSMISSION OF BIOELECTRICAL SIGNALS FROM A PATIENT TO BIOMEDICAL ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT AND FOR PATIENT GROUNDING. EACH LEAD HAS AN INTEGRAL UNPOWERED SEMICONDUCTOR CURRENT LIMITING CIRCUIT AT THE ELECTRODE WHICH PROVIDES LINEAR LOW IMPEDANCE TRANSMISSION OF THE BIOELECTRICAL SIGNAL BUT LIMITS CURRENT FLOW THROUGH THE LEAD TO A PRESET MAXIMUM LEVEL BELOW THT WHICH IS HARMFUL TO THE PATIENT, REGARDLESS OF THE POLARITY AND INTENSITY OF ACCIDENTALLY APPLIED CURRENTS AND VOLTAGES.
