Abstract
The newly developed electrode for human body model, which is used for evaluation of EMI to a cardiac Active Implant Medical Device (AIMD), is reported. The electrode consists of applying and monitoring of signal portion and reduces crosstalk and signal leakage in application of cardiac pacing and sensing. It is practical and sufficient means of simulating EMI effects to an AIMD.
