MFI Medical Blog Doctor with Patient and EMG System

Measuring the electrical activity of the human nervous system, with or without stimuli, is no easy task. As such, finding the right combination of EMG EP systems and supplies for you is of the utmost importance. But, the search doesn’t end once you’ve chosen the perfect EMG system. Now you need to upgrade your purchase with the perfect accessories to make sure your new system is easy to use, performing at its best, and comfortable for all your patients.

Fortunately, at MFI Medical we carry an extensive selection of the best EMG supplies on the market today to make sure you’re getting what’s best for both your practice and your wallet.

1) Weaver Ten20 Conductive Paste

Preferred by expert technologists and technicians the world over and available in 2 oz jars, 4 oz jars, 4 oz tubes, and 8 oz jars, Weaver Ten20 Conductive Paste is the perfect balance of adhesiveness and conductivity. It enables the electrodes to remain securely in place, while also allowing the transmittance of electrical signals. This means you will no longer have to disrupt a test to reattach the electrodes and this reliable paste will conduct the signal that you are relying on for clear results.

2) Parker Spectra 360 Electrode Gel

The only salt-free and chloride-free electrically conductive gel, Parker Spectra 360 Electrode Gel comes in either 2 oz or 8.5 gel tubes. Recommended for all electromedical procedures, except defibrillation, the salt-free characteristics of this top-of-the-line gel makes it the perfect choice for long-term applications. It differs significantly from all other electrically conductive media - it works by wetting the skin, thereby reducing skin resistance.
