Abstract

　We design a novel scalp electrode for use in urgent situation in the emergency room. The electrode is made of elastomer/polypropylene material with excellent conductivity and has a Kenzan shape, which does not require shaving or degreasing of the scalp. The novel scalp electrode enables us to immediate electroencephalography (EEG) in the emergency room.
