More Information
Summary:Apparatus and method according to the disclosure relate to promoting flow of body fluids in and around and between a substantially planar cardiac-sensing electrode and a shroud member utilizing spacing therebetween and/or one or more apertures, notches, slots and the like. For example, a relatively recessed area or aperture formed in an exemplary resin-based shroud member includes apertures that cooperate to promote flow of body fluids therearound. La présente invention concerne un appareil et un procédé destinés à promouvoir l'écoulement de fluides corporels à l'intérieur, autour et entre une électrode à détection cardiaque essentiellement planaire et un élément de coiffe, un espacement et/ou une ou plusieurs ouvertures, encoches, fentes ou autre étant prévues entre ceux-ci. Par exemple, une zone ou ouverture relativement encastrée formée dans un élément de coiffe exemplaire à base de résine comprend des ouvertures coopérant pour promouvoir l'écoulement de fluides corporels autour de celles-ci.
