McKesson ECG Monitoring Electrodes - 1-3/4 Inch Round - Silver/Silver Chloride - Conductive Adhesive Gel - FSA/HSA Eligible

Professional All-Purpose ECG Monitoring Electrodes for Superior Cardiac Monitoring

The McKesson All-Purpose Tape Electrodes represent the gold standard in ECG monitoring technology, delivering exceptional signal quality and patient comfort for cardiac monitoring applications. These professional-grade electrodes have been rigorously tested for use on humans and are trusted by healthcare professionals in hospitals, clinics, cardiac care units, emergency departments, and diagnostic centers worldwide.

Clear Tape Backing for Enhanced Visibility and Full Surface Adhesion

Featuring an innovative clear tape backing, these electrodes allow complete visibility of the underlying skin during monitoring procedures. This transparency enables healthcare providers to continuously observe the skin condition beneath the electrode, quickly identifying any signs of irritation, redness, or adverse reactions without removing the electrode. The clear backing also ensures full surface adhesion across the entire electrode, creating optimal skin contact that translates to superior signal transmission and trace quality. This complete adhesion minimizes motion artifacts and maintains consistent electrical contact even during patient movement, ensuring reliable monitoring throughout extended wear periods.

Silver/Silver Chloride Sensor Technology for Quality Traces

At the core of each electrode is a premium silver/silver chloride sensor that delivers consistently high-quality ECG traces with minimal noise and interference. This proven sensor technology provides excellent electrical conductivity and stable baseline performance, ensuring accurate cardiac rhythm detection and reliable waveform reproduction. The silver/silver chloride composition creates a stable electrochemical interface that maintains signal integrity throughout the monitoring period, giving clinicians the confidence they need to make critical diagnostic and treatment decisions based on clear, accurate ECG readings.

Conductive Adhesive Hydrogel for Optimal Performance

The electrode features a specially formulated conductive adhesive hydrogel that serves dual purposes: providing secure adhesion to the skin while simultaneously conducting electrical signals with exceptional clarity. This advanced hydrogel formulation maintains its conductive properties throughout extended monitoring sessions, ensuring consistent signal quality from application to removal. The hydrogel's balanced moisture content prevents drying out during long-term use while maintaining the adhesive strength necessary to keep electrodes securely in place during patient movement, transfers, and routine care activities.

Easy Removal with No Gel Residue or Cleanup

One of the standout features of these electrodes is their easy removal with no gel residue or cleanup required. Unlike traditional wet gel electrodes that leave sticky, messy residue on the skin, these advanced electrodes remove cleanly and completely, saving valuable nursing time and improving patient comfort. The clean removal process eliminates the need for alcohol wipes, adhesive removers, or extensive skin cleaning after electrode removal, streamlining workflow in busy clinical environments and enhancing the patient experience. This feature is particularly valuable during frequent electrode changes or when repositioning is necessary.

Biocompatible and Safe for All Patients

Manufactured to be biocompatible, these electrodes are safe for use on all patient populations, including those with sensitive skin. The materials have been carefully selected and tested to minimize the risk of allergic reactions, skin irritation, or adverse tissue responses. The electrodes are not made with natural rubber latex, making them safe for latex-sensitive patients and healthcare facilities that maintain latex-free environments. Additionally, they are DEHP-free, eliminating concerns about exposure to this potentially harmful plasticizer, which is especially important for vulnerable patient populations including neonates, pregnant women, and patients requiring long-term monitoring.

Defibrillator Recoverable for Emergency Situations

These electrodes are defib recoverable, meaning they can withstand defibrillation procedures without damage to the electrode or loss of adhesion. After a defibrillation shock is delivered, the electrodes remain functional and continue to provide quality ECG traces, eliminating the need for immediate electrode replacement during critical emergency situations. This feature ensures continuous cardiac monitoring during resuscitation efforts and allows healthcare providers to quickly assess rhythm changes following defibrillation without interruption.

Single-Use Disposable Design for Infection Control

Designed for single-use and disposable application, these electrodes support the highest standards of infection control and patient safety. The single-use design eliminates any risk of cross-contamination between patients, ensuring that each patient receives a fresh, sterile electrode. After use, simply dispose of the electrode according to your facility's medical waste protocols. This approach aligns with modern healthcare infection prevention practices and provides peace of mind for both patients and healthcare providers.

FSA/HSA Eligible for Healthcare Savings

This product is FSA/HSA eligible, allowing you to use pre-tax dollars from your Flexible Spending Account or Health Savings Account to purchase these essential cardiac monitoring supplies. This benefit helps reduce healthcare costs while ensuring you have access to professional-quality ECG electrodes for home monitoring, cardiac rehabilitation, or clinical use.
