A method for refurbishing reusing a physiological monitor, the method comprising:
- providing a wearable patch configured to attach to the skin of a mammal and to be detached from the skin of the mammal after a period of time, the wearable patch comprising:
- a hardware processer and a plurality of electrodes, the hardware processor encased within a first housing, the first housing comprising a first upper housing member and a first lower housing member, and
- a plurality of adhesive wings extending laterally from the housing, each wing comprising a lower substrate layer, an upper substrate layer, and an electrode trace positioned between each upper substrate layer and each lower substrate layer, each upper substrate layer comprising a rim extending horizontally outward beyond the corresponding lower substrate layer;
- detaching the upper housing member from the lower housing member;
- removing the hardware processor from the wearable patch;
- transferring the physiological signals to a data processor;
- and
- inserting the hardware processor into a second housing, the second housing comprising a second upper housing member and a second lower housing member.
