ECG, NMHS, Patient Monitoring
Understanding Stress Test Electrodes by Samantha TilkinsA stress test is a commonly used diagnostic tool to assess how well your heart functions under physical exertion.

While looking for a gentle ECG electrode, there are many buzz words used. Unfortunately in the case of the word ‘hypoallergenic’ the FDA has no regulation on its meaning.While “Allergen-Free” and “Hypoallergenic” are enticing terms that are commonly used in marketing, with no regulation they have no real meaning. So let’s dig in to what each of these buzz words can mean.Allergen-Free ElectrodesNothing can be truly “allergen-free” since even the most elemental or basic ingredients can technically cause an allergic reaction to somebody.
