CA 2753063

A method and system (10) for attaching medical devices (60) to a patient (80) are provided. In accordance with an embodiment, a medical device is formed with or is coupled to an attachment structure including a plurality of electrodes (16) capable of generating differential voltages at adjacent electrodes, to thereby provide electrostatic adhesion with the tissue of a patient. In an embodiment, the attachment structure includes an insulative material (18) between the respective electrodes of the plurality of electrodes.

Cette invention concerne une méthode et un système permettant de fixer en toute sécurité des dispositifs médicaux sur le corps d'un patient. Selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention, un dispositif médical est formé ou est couplé avec une structure de fixation comprenant plusieurs électrodes et capable de générer une différence de tension dans des électrodes adjacentes, produisant ainsi une adhésion électrostatique avec le tissu du patient. Dans un mode de réalisation, la structure de fixation comporte un matériau isolant entre chacune des différentes électrodes.
