Medical Electrode Manufacturing

EEG, ECG, Bio Impedance and TENS.

These are some of the most common signals measured when it comes to wearable sensors. EEG is used for measurements on the head/skull area, most commonly with the aim of analysing brain waves.

ECG monitors and patches have seen a huge surge in popularity in recent years. ECG attempts to measure heart rate and heart rate variability by analysing electrical signals gathered from the chest area of the subject. ECG measurement is a popular feature in fitness trackers and patient monitors, which usually vary greatly in size a shape, which is where our expertise in custom electrodes comes in handy.

Bio Impedance measurements attempt to analyse body fat content by measuring the resistance/impedance of the human body. The underlying idea is that fat has a higher impedance than muscle tissue, so the more fat there is, the higher the impedance. Bio Impedance is most often found in fitness monitoring solutions.

Therapeutic Electronic Nerve Stimulation (TENS) is a therapy that attempts to stimulate muscle tissue to aid recovery of people who have suffered an injury or those who suffer from (partial) paralysis. Not every affliction and application is the same however and sometimes you need electrodes in a very specific shape or form to best suit the recovery process, this is where Screentec can help you.
