Description

Premium Stick-on Electrodes for Electrostimulation and TENS

Standard pack of 4 electrodes

Axelgaard’s advanced manufacturing techniques shine in this smartly designed conductive film electrode with a white cloth top. ValuTrode® X is the clinician’s choice for durability, reusability, and value. ValuTrode® X electrodes feature an oversized border to facilitate proper and easy removal, which further extends the life of the electrode. Better patient comfort during therapy is achieved with better skin adhesion through Axelgaard’s patented multi-layer MultiStick® hydrogel. The streamlined ValuTrode® X product line makes ordering simple. Tan cloth tops are available by special order.

 

Applying the electrode

  • Ensure that the stimulation device is switched off prior to applying or removing the electrode, and disconnect the wire from the stimulation device.
  • Apply electrode only to unbroken skin. Clean the area where the electrode is to be applied with soap and water. Rinse and dry.
  • With the electrode still on the liner, attach the unattached lead wire from stimulation device to the electrode connector.
  • Remove the electrode from liner by gripping the edge of the electrode and peeling it off the liner. Keep the liner for storing the electrode after use.
  • Place the electrode on the exact skin location (should be determined by a medical professional) by applying the centre of the electrode first and smoothing down to the edges. Finally, attach the lead wire to stimulation device.

Removal

  • Turn off the stimulation device and disconnect the lead wire from the device.
  • Remove the electrode from skin by peeling from electrode edge. Place back on to liner.

Re-Application and Storage

  • If the adhesive becomes over-saturated, allow the electrode to air-dry in a refrigerator with adhesive side up until gel regains its tackiness
  • If the electrode gel appears dry, add a few drops of water to the electrode gel. Allow it to rest to tacky stage before applying to the skin.
  • Between uses, return the electrode to the liner and store in the resealable bag in a cool dry place out of direct sunlight.

Electrode life / longevity

The life of the electrode varies depending on skin conditions, skin preparation, type of stimulation, storage, and climate.
