Conductivity of hydrogel with rubber silicone in NMES device

[smithy1378]

TL;DR

I have a question in regards to a neuromuscular device. Can silicone be combined with hydrogel or the rubber silicone encased in hydrogel to form a wrist watch strap combined with a NMES device. If this is possible how would the hydrogel conduct the NMES device and what is the durability of having encasing of the hydrogel around the silicone and the durability of combining the two together?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Welcome to PhysicsForums.

Can you say why you would want to electrically stimulate the wrist? Seems like an unusual place to apply electrical stimulation...
