Description
The Bio Telectrode ECG Monitoring Electrodes cover the everyday monitoring range in one family, with clear tape, cloth and PE foam backings in adult and pediatric sizes. Silver/silver chloride sensing with an adhesive hydrogel supports stable signals for stress testing, Holter recording and routine ECG monitoring.
About This Monitoring Electrode
Monitoring electrodes stay on the patient far longer than resting tabs, so backing choice and gel behavior matter. Telectrode offers three backings because monitoring settings differ, with clear tape for a low profile fit, cloth for a soft conformable feel and PE foam for a cushioned seal. Every configuration uses a silver/silver chloride sensing element with an adhesive hydrogel, and the manufacturer rates the design for low impedance, which helps limit movement artifacts during longer recordings. Oval and round shapes cover standard chest placements, and the pediatric oval gives smaller patients a proportionate fit. Configurations are packed 50 to a pouch and 20 pouches to a box, so departments can stock the exact backing each unit prefers.
Features and Benefits
Backing Options
- Clear tape backing – a transparent, low profile backing that lets staff check skin contact at a glance
- Cloth backing – a soft, conformable backing for comfortable wear during monitoring
- PE foam backing – a cushioned foam backing that seals well on contoured placements
Signal Performance
- Silver/silver chloride sensor – the Ag/AgCl element supports stable signal pickup across monitoring sessions
- Adhesive hydrogel – solid adhesive hydrogel couples the sensor to the skin and holds contact as the patient moves
- Low impedance design – the manufacturer rates the design for low impedance, which helps minimize movement artifacts

Why Choose This Monitoring Electrode
One electrode family that covers stress labs, Holter programs and general monitoring reduces the number of products a department has to evaluate and stock. Telectrode keeps the sensor and gel constant while the backing changes, so signal behavior stays familiar across units. Buyers pick the backing per setting and keep one ordering routine.
- Fewer product lines to stock – five configurations under one family cover adult and pediatric monitoring
- Consistent signal behavior – the same Ag/AgCl sensor and hydrogel across backings keep tracings predictable
- Right backing per setting – tape, cloth and foam options match different wear and visibility needs
- Manufacturer direct design – Bio ProTech manufactures the Telectrode line itself, with FDA 510(k) clearance for the family
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the configurations?
The sensor and gel stay the same while the backing and size change. Clear tape (T916-50) is transparent and low profile, cloth (T815-50) is soft and conformable, and the PE foam options add a cushioned seal in adult oval (T716-50), adult round (T715-50) and pediatric oval (T718) sizes.
What are these electrodes used for?
They are monitoring electrodes for ECG monitoring, including stress testing and Holter recording. The clear tape adult oval configuration is listed specifically for stress and Holter work.
How many electrodes are in a box?
Adult configurations pack 50 electrodes per pouch and 20 pouches per box, for 1,000 electrodes per box. The pediatric T718 configuration is sold by the case as listed.
Are the electrodes single use?
Yes. Telectrode monitoring electrodes are disposable and intended for single patient use, then discarded after the monitoring session.
What sensor and gel do they use?
Each electrode uses a silver/silver chloride sensing element with a solid adhesive hydrogel. The manufacturer rates the design for low impedance to help limit movement artifacts.
Which size fits pediatric patients?
The T718 configuration is the pediatric option, an oval PE foam electrode measuring 32 x 38 mm. Adult configurations come in 43 x 45 mm oval and 55 mm round sizes.
