The present invention provides a medical electrode which comprises an annular adhesive pad (203) to be attached to a living being a conductive pad (205) disposed in the central hole (207) of the annular adhesive pad a first conductive snap element (209) a conductive element (211) and a sealing film (213). The conductive element (211) is configured to establish electrical communication between the conductive pad (205) and the first conductive snap element (209) and the sealing film (213) is attached to the annular adhesive pad (203) and to fix at least a portion of the conductive element (211) between the annular adhesive pad (203) and the sealing film (213). The flexibility and/or length of the conductive element is chosen to be large enough so as to allow the first conductive snap element (209) to move without causing the conductive pad (205) to move resulting in reliable electrical contact between the conductive pad and the skin of the living being.
