Abstract

See full text

A flexible elongate strip assembly for use in a medical device and including at least one longitudinally-extending layer of an insulating material having substantially planar spaced-apart parallel outer and inner surfaces. A plurality of pads formed from a conductive material are attached to the inner surface of the layer in longitudinally spaced-apart positions. The layer is provided with a plurality of openings extending between the outer and inner surfaces in spaced-apart positions so as to expose through the outer surface at least a portion of each pad. A plurality of spaced-apart generally parallel traces are attached to the inner surface and extend longitudinally of the layer from the pads. The exposed portion of each pad can serve as a conductive surface of an electrode.
