EMA ECG ULTRASOUND GEL

DESCRIPTION

EMA ECG and Ultrasound gel is a medical gel manufactured by EMA Lab Systems, a verified supplier in Lucknow, India. The gel is used as a conductive medium for both electrocardiogram (ECG) and ultrasound procedures.

Features and Properties:

• Conductivity: The primary function of the gel is to enable a tight bond between the skin and electrodes (for ECG) or the transducer/probe (for ultrasound). This allows for the clear and uninterrupted transmission of electrical signals (ECG) or sound waves (ultrasound).
• Formulation: It is described as a non-greasy, water-soluble, and strain-proof formulation.
• Safety: The gel is non-toxic and non-irritating, suitable for use on skin.
• Ingredients: While a specific list of ingredients for the EMA brand is not available, general descriptions of similar gels indicate they are typically made with purified water, a carboxylic polymer (like Carbomer) to create the gel consistency, and a neutralizing agent (like Triethanolamine). They are often formulated to be salt-free, formaldehyde-free, and fragrance-free to prevent skin irritation and damage to equipment.
• Applications: The gel is suitable for use in various medical procedures, including:
  • ECG (Electrocardiogram)
  • Ultrasound (Sonography)
  • Doppler studies
  • Defibrillator applications

Packaging and Storage:

• It is commonly sold in bottles, such as a 250ml size, and also in larger containers like 5 kg jars for medical facilities.
• The gel is for external use only and can be easily removed with a towel or tissue.
• It typically has a shelf life of around 24 months from the date of manufacture.
