ECG (Electrocardiogram) Electrodes are adhesive sensors used to detect and transmit the electrical activity of the heart to an ECG machine. They are essential for monitoring heart rhythm, diagnosing cardiac conditions, and conducting routine or emergency cardiac assessments.

Key Features

• Adhesive backing: Ensures the electrode sticks securely to the skin during testing.

• Conductive material: Often made with silver/silver chloride (Ag/AgCl) sensors for accurate signal detection.

• Disposable: Single-use electrodes maintain hygiene and reduce infection risk.

• Variety of shapes and sizes: Suitable for adults, pediatrics, or neonatal patients.

• Connector compatibility: Designed to fit standard ECG machine lead wires.

Common Uses

• Routine ECG monitoring in hospitals or clinics

• Cardiac stress tests

• Emergency cardiac care

• Telemetry or Holter monitoring
