Electrical energy delivery system using large area surface electrodes
The granted patent US12042653B2 describes a surface applicator apparatus designed for delivering high-voltage electrical pulses to a treatment area. The apparatus features an insulating substrate with two electrodes, each forming a pattern of elongate traces that are significantly longer than they are wide. These patterns are arranged adjacent to one another, maintaining a uniform gap along their lengths, which allows for the creation of a consistent electrical field when connected to a pulse generator. The design includes conductors for electrical coupling to the pulse generator, enabling the delivery of sub-microsecond pulses, which are critical for effective treatment applications.
Additionally, the apparatus may incorporate vacuum ports and suction channels to secure the electrodes to the treatment area, enhancing stability during use. The electrodes can be made from conductive hydrogels, and the gap between the patterns can be filled with an insulating material, such as silicone adhesive. The patent also outlines various configurations for the electrode patterns, including serpentine and interdigitated designs, which optimize the electric field distribution across the treatment surface. The method of use involves affixing the applicator to a patient’s skin and applying high-voltage pulses, with the potential for flexibility in the applicator design to conform to different treatment areas.
