An electrocardiography patch is provided. A pair of electrodes are exposed on a contact surface of a flexible backing. A circuit includes a pair of circuit traces and each circuit trace is electrically coupled to one of the electrodes in the pair. A plurality of electrical pads are positioned between the electrodes and above at least a portion of the circuit traces. A pair of the electrical pads interface with the electrodes. A pair of battery leads electrically interface a battery to another pair of the electrical pads.
