Abstract

An improved electrode (20; 30) and iontophoretic device and method where the electrode exhibits varied resistance. The electrode (20; 30) is made of a conductive material (21,22,23; 31,32,33) and applied to a flexible substrate (10). The variation in resistance can be achieved by varying the thickness of the electrode (20; 30) across its length or by varying the conductivity of the material (21,22,23; 31,32,33) across the area of the electrode (20; 30) or a combination of both. A pair of such electrodes (20;30) may be used with a power source in electrical relation thereto and applied over a layer of agent to the skin to deliver the agent into the skin iontophoretically. The pair of electrodes may be shaped so as to cover a portion of the face, hands, feet or other body parts to iontophoretically apply particular agents to those areas.

Description of the Invention (1) Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an electrode. More specifically, the electrode of the present invention is used in iontophoresis equipment and methods To deliver chemicals (such as medicines, nutrients, cosmetics) to Pirup. Prior art Transcutaneous delivery of chemicals (i.e., the transfer of chemicals to the patient's skin) is commonly used in drug delivery applications. Many osmotic systems are known. The simplest is probably to contact the patient's skin with the chemical to be delivered and allow the chemical to penetrate the skin through the pores and a large amount of delivery occurs immediately. This technique is the most common in terms of providing skin care products with various cosmetic products such as skin softeners and the like. The care products are simply scattered on the skin and allowed to stay there, so that certain ingredients of the care products can penetrate the skin. A more complex skin-penetrating chemical delivery technique (known as iontophoresis) uses electrical energy to direct chemicals to penetrate the skin. Iontophoresis allows better control of the rate of chemical transport and the depth of chemical penetration into the skin. In addition, iontophoresis allows larger molecules to penetrate the skin. Anatomy of the most naked point, iontophoresis involves electric force to drive ionic chemicals into the skin. The iontophoresis device includes two electrodes. At any one time, one of these electrodes has ions near it that can be driven into the skin. In use, both electrodes are in contact with the skin temple. Electric power is provided to the electrodes, and a current is generated between the electrodes, which current passes through the skin and drives the ionic chemicals away from the first electrode and into the second electrode. — — — — — — — — — — — — I — — — — — — — < Please read the note f on the back before filling out this page) This paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 specifications ( 210 X 297 mm) -4- Printed by the Shelley Consumer Cooperative of Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs A7 __B7 _____ V. Description of the Invention (2) It is known that several biochemical electrodes can sense biochemical signals, such as ECG signals or EEG signals. In addition, several electrodes are known to passively induce skin-permeating currents or skin-permeating guided electrical energy. However, none can provide a uniform current across the electrode. In certain applications, we want a uniform current distribution or potential across the electrode. This can be achieved by providing electrodes that exhibit high conductivity and low resistance. Currently, electrodeless displays these qualities. In addition, none of the existing electrodes can be used well for body parts with varying depths of the skin and inductive changes in current. Such electrodes or equipment should have a uniform current distribution and low resistance to avoid damaging the more sensitive parts of the flax surface due to burning or electrolysis. In addition, none of the existing electrodes can be used well in high density parts of the body such as the face, hands, feet or head. In the case of high-density nerve endings, there may be an increase or decrease from existing devices that can sense iontophoresis. The optimal delivery direction for some specific drugs may be permeating. For example, some medicines are most effective when they are delivered directly to the surface of the area where acne is occurring. These conditions are a good result of the iontophoresis of this drug. Currently, no electrodes, iontophoresis devices or methods can effectively deliver such drugs without harming the skin. There are no existing electrodes or iontophoresis devices or methods that take into account changes in skin-to-skin sensitivity to current-guided skin. In some cases, the application of a skin-penetrating drug may be random, or the part should be isolated during the processing of a part. For example, nail mold treatment must be provided directly to the toenails or fingernails. In these processes, the paper size applies the Chinese national standard (CNS > A4 specification (2) 0 X 297 mm) ~! — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — "Read the precautions on the back and fill in this page again.)

In these cases, I hope these electrodes or ions The electroosmotic device can be completely discarded and can fit the applicable contours of the body. In addition, the electrodes and equipment 'in medical care' should be able to isolate this part to reduce the spread of any medicine or condition to other parts, clothing or the like. To be completely Disposable and compatible 'This device must be flexible, thin and made of cheap materials. At present, there are several patents related to disposable electrodes. However,' the prior art has not disclosed anything and is not used in ions Disposable electrodes in electroosmosis have variable resistance to provide a predetermined degree of current distribution and compensate for changes in the sensitivity of some skin parts and thus avoid harmful combustion. Therefore, a generally recognized Seek truth: An electrode that is optimized in composition and structure to minimize or eliminate radiation to the skin of the user. Another requirement is that the electrodes used in iontophoresis equipment and methods are in composition and structure Both are optimized to minimize or eliminate radiation to the user's skin. Another need is to change the resistance of the electrode from one part to another to compensate for changes in skin sensitivity. Another need is: The resistance of at least one of the electrodes used in an iontophoresis device and method changes from one part to another to compensate for changes in skin sensitivity. Another need is: a method for introducing a drug into the skin, wherein The electrode has a variable resistance, so that the drug can effectively enter the skin, but avoid burns or other injuries to the skin.

Description of the Invention (4) Another requirement is: a device that can effectively eliminate cellulitis under the skin surface by using electrodes with varying thicknesses to conduct electricity to the skin And method. As described above, the present invention overcomes the above-mentioned shortcomings or other shortcomings related to prior art electrodes and iontophoresis equipment and methods. According to the present invention, an electrode has a flexible non-conductive substrate and a layer of conductive material, The latter is provided to a part of the surface of the former. The conductive material has a variable resistance. The present invention also provides a device for delivering medicine to the skin surface by iontophoresis, which includes a flexible substrate and a pair of separated electrodes. These electrodes are made of a conductive material provided to a part of the surface of the substrate. At least one of these electrodes has a variable resistance. The device also includes a power source to power each electrode. When the power source is energized with these electrodes, current flows to the skin, causing the medicine to be supplied to the surface of the skin and transmitted below the surface of the skin. The present invention also provides a method for delivering medicine to the skin. This method includes fixing a pair of electrodes to a portion of the surface of a flexible substrate. These electrodes are separated and at least one of them has a variable resistance. This method also includes several steps: supplying the drug to the skin surface, bringing the electrodes into contact with the skin surface, and conducting electricity from a power source to the electrodes. The electrodes, iontophoresis devices and methods of the present invention are superior to the prior art because they change the resistance of at least one electrode and avoid skin radiation during normal use. The resistance is changed in one or a combination of the following ways: 1. Change the thickness of the conductive material; 2. Change the conductivity of the conductive material: 3.

As a result of the change in resistance, the electrodes exhibit vertical and / or horizontal changes in resistance. Vertical resistance is the resistance measured through the thickness of a specific point across the electrode, and horizontal resistance is the resistance measured along a specific length of the electrode. Vertical changes in resistance are particularly important to prevent hot spots (current focusing on abnormally conducting parts of the user's skin, such as small wounds). These hot spots can be prevented by making the conductive ink layer more sensitive to direct contact and the current of the user's skin than other parts. Varying resistance throughout the electrode maintains a controlled current density across the entire surface of the electrode. The scope of the invention also includes the use of the device of the invention for iontophoresis to apply cosmetics, and iontophoresis to reduce the deposition of subcutaneous cellulitis. Various topical creams and skin care products can be used to reduce cellulitis, but safe and effective methods for iontophoresis applications of these creams and skin care products have not been previously disclosed. Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide an electrode, an iontophoresis device, and a method having a variable resistance to achieve a uniform current distribution. Another object of the present invention is to provide an electrode, an iontophoresis device, and a method with varying resistance to reduce damage to the skin.
