Chattanooga VitalStim Adult Electrodes, 100-pack

Ensure precise delivery of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) with VitalStim Adult Electrodes. Designed specifically for the unique contours of the adult anterior neck, these electrodes provide consistent contact and optimal current distribution, which are essential for successful dysphagia rehabilitation. Clinicians can trust in the quality of each session, knowing the equipment supports the rigorous demands of muscle re-education while prioritizing patient comfort. The pack of 100 ensures your clinic is always stocked and ready to deliver consistent, high-quality care.

Key Benefits and Features

• Superior Conductivity: Engineered with low impedance measurement, these electrodes allow the electrical current to disperse evenly across the treatment area. This minimizes the risk of hot spots and ensures the targeted muscles receive the precise stimulation required for strengthening and re-education.
• Secure and Gentle Adhesion: The unique material conforms easily to the skin, maintaining a secure grip throughout the therapy session even as the patient swallows and moves. Despite the strong hold, the removal process is gentle, protecting fragile skin from irritation or trauma.
• Hygienic and Efficient: Designed for single-patient use, these disposable electrodes eliminate the risk of cross-contamination. The easy-peel backing allows for quick application, streamlining clinical workflows and maximizing the time spent on direct patient care.
• Optimized Design: The shape and size are specifically calibrated for adult anatomy, ensuring that the stimulation is directed exactly where it is needed without unnecessary dispersion to surrounding tissues.

Indications for Use

VitalStim Electrodes are intended for use with the VitalStim Therapy System. They are indicated for the treatment of dysphagia (swallowing difficulties) caused by stroke, traumatic brain injury, or other neurological disorders. The electrodes facilitate muscle re-education by providing external stimulation to the muscles of the throat involved in swallowing.

• Neuromuscular re-education: This involves using the electrodes to stimulate specific muscles or muscle groups in order to help improve muscle function and movement.
• Pain management: By stimulating nerves and muscles, VitalStim Electrodes can be used to provide pain relief for individuals with chronic pain conditions.
• Respiratory support: In some cases, these electrodes can be used on the chest area to assist with respiratory muscle strengthening and breathing exercises.
