Red Dot electrodes portfolio features options that meet your patient and performance needs.

Reliable adhesion and performance

Acceptable trace quality during intended applications and reliable adhesion for the duration of wear. Comfortable to wear.

Minimal skin irritation

Consider clinical indications and skin sensitivity when choosing an electrode. Select an electrode that is gentle on the skin, minimises irritation and is ideal for populations with fragile skin, including pediatrics.

Help reduce the risk of cross-contamination

Single-patient electrode packs help reduce cross contamination risk by minimising exposure to environmental contaminants and interactions with multiple healthcare professionals.
