Electrolyte Gel Solution
The use of Cogel ECG-EEG is recommended for all diagnostic medical applications in which it is necessary
to reduce the contact resistance between the electrode sensors and the skin, in order to pick up the bioelectrical signals (ECG, EEG, EMG, EP) or, if used in therapeutic treatment, in order to optimize the connection
between the treatment electrodes and the skin during electrical therapy (defibrillation, cardioversion, electrical physiotherapy) and reduce burn risks. The special chemical and physical characteristics of the product
ensure a very high degree of efficiency for the entire duration of exams or treatments, even if they last a long
time.
Relevant Specifications, Quality and Safety Aspects
Cogel ECG-EEG is a water-based gel, enriched with electrolytes, hypoallergenic and water-soluble. It does
not damage the sensor or treatment electrodes and it does not stain or leave greasy marks. The special and
highly resistant reticulated structure that characterizes Cogel ECG-EEG limits the liquefaction effect caused
by substances with a high salt content, such as for example body sweat and oil. As a result, you can use the
gel sparingly, because there is no need to keep adding more of the product during exams or treatment. Cogel
ECG-EEG is completely free of scents or essences, which are notorious causes of type one allergic reactions. It
does not contain formaldehyde and its pH value is neutral. All raw materials used to make Cogel ECG-EEG
are found in the FU category (Official Pharmacopoeia). The containers used in the gel packaging are made
of food grade polyethylene and completely latex free. Comedical carries out constant quality control checks
on each batch and especially on the entire production cycle and the packaging for the Cogel ECG-EEG line.
Cogel ECG-EEG is a class I EC marked product and complies with European Directive 93/42 EEC which
regulates the manufacture, marketing and use of Medical Devices.
