ECG Electrodes
A conductive medium designed to be applied to a patient's unbroken skin surface to provide a coupling between an analytical device (e.g., ultrasound transducer, optical glucose monitoring system) amd the patient, allowing for the emission and reception of signals (e.g., ultrasound, light) that pass through the skin during an examination. It is in the form of a non-sticky, fluid-like gel that may also assist the operator's ability to move the analytical device smoothly over the skin to better analyse the site of interest.
Intended Use
The ECG electrode is a device which is applied to the skin and transfers the electrical activity produced by the heart to a monitoring or diagnostic device which is capable of visualising the data.
