Low profile electrode connector

A connector assembly for a biomedical electrode comprising a connector body and a biomedical electrode, the connector comprising:

• a connector body having a multiplicity of sides, a top and a bottom, the connector body having therein a channel, the channel communicating with one side and the bottom of said body so as to slidably and restrictively receive said member while permitting rotation between said body and said electrode, the channel having a widened portion opening to the one side and tapering to a narrower portion, said narrower portion of said channel having a substantially circular terminus at approximately the center of said connector body, said channel being interiorly concave so as to cooperate with said member;
• electrical conductor means for connecting said connector body to external electrical input or output means, said electrical conductor means attached to and extending into said connector body at a point adjacent the channel opening and means for electrically connecting said electrical conductor means to said channel;
• and the biomedical electrode comprising:
• a backing member, the backing member having on one side thereof;
• conductive material to make electrical contact with skin;
• and
• adhesive material for adhering said backing member to skin;
• the electrode further comprising:
• an upstanding connecting member extending through said banking member which is electrically coupled to said conductive material.
