Tips for the use of Sanibel disposable Tab and Snap electrodes

To ensure the optimal use of your Sanibel disposable tab or snap electrodes, please observe the following:

• Ensure that the skin is clean and dry before placing the electrode.
  • It is recommended to use an alcohol wipe or similar to clean the skin prior to electrode placement.
  • If your patient's skin is sweaty or very oily, an alternative electrode with stronger adhesion, PEG15 electrodes (part number 8500060), is recommended for use.
• When applying electrodes to the skin, press down firmly on the entire electrode surface to improve adhesion.
• Use a small amount of conductive electrode gel to improve impedances, if required.
• Use pinch or button cables for snap electrodes and alligator cables for tab electrodes.
• Electrode adhesion time is limited to a maximum of 1 hour.
• Store unused electrodes in unopened pouches at temperatures 5°-27° C / 40°-80° F.
• Use before the expiry date printed on the pouch.
