Frequently asked questions

How do these electrodes ensure contact on the neck?

These electrodes feature a unique, stretchable material that molds effortlessly to the irregular contours of the anterior neck. This ensures consistent contact throughout the therapy session, which is vital for effective stimulation.

Are these electrodes safe for patients with delicate skin?

Absolutely. The butterfly-shaped design provides excellent adhesion while ensuring gentle removal. This is particularly important for clinical environments where patient comfort and skin integrity are high priorities.

Can I use these with any NMES device?

These electrodes are specifically designed for compatibility with VitalStim and VitalStim Plus systems. Using them with the intended manufacturer equipment ensures the best performance and reliable conductivity.

Are the electrodes designed for multiple uses?

For safety and hygiene, these are strictly single-patient use electrodes. This ensures compliance with medical standards and prevents cross-contamination in a clinical setting.

Are these electrodes specifically optimized for dysphagia treatment?

Yes, these electrodes are engineered specifically for neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) protocols used in dysphagia therapy. They are designed to reliably transmit the high current loads required for this specific clinical application.

Do I need scissors to prepare these electrodes?

No scissors are required. The material is specifically engineered to be easily torn by hand, allowing for rapid and efficient application during busy clinical sessions.

Do these electrodes maintain their shape during therapy?

Yes, they are built to provide reliable conductivity without internal electrode separation. This construction ensures that they maintain their structural integrity even when transmitting the high-density current required by the VitalStim protocol.

Are these manufactured in the United States?

Yes, this product is manufactured in the United States and meets both Buy American Act (BAA) and Trade Agreement Act (TAA) compliance standards.

What type of connection do these electrodes use?

These electrodes utilize a standard snap connection, ensuring a secure and reliable attachment to your VitalStim or VitalStim Plus system cables.

How many electrodes are included in each purchase?

Each pack contains 12 individual electrodes, providing a sufficient supply for consistent treatment protocols.
