Overview

AI-generated summary, 1 Oct 2026

Written by a language model from registry data. Not verified by deviCERTS or the manufacturer. The registry data above is the record.

The LDS Monitoring Electrode is a diagnostic electrode designed for attaching to the skin to monitor electrical activity, typically used in cardiac monitoring systems. It facilitates the detection and transmission of electrocardiogram (ECG) signals for clinical assessment of heart function. These electrodes are essential components in patient monitoring equipment, enabling real-time observation of cardiac rhythms and electrical conduction.

The device is supplied as a reusable medical electrode, intended for use in clinical settings such as hospitals and cardiac care units. It is regulated under FDA 510(k) clearance (K821846) and falls under the product code DRX, classified as a Class II device. Sterility and preparation instructions are not specified in the data, but proper skin preparation and electrode application are critical for accurate signal acquisition. No MRI safety information is provided, and storage conditions are not detailed in the available records.

Questions

AI-generated answers, 1 Oct 2026

Written by a language model from registry data. Not verified by deviCERTS or the manufacturer. The registry data above is the record.

  • What is the LDS Monitoring Electrode used for?

    The LDS Monitoring Electrode is designed to attach to the skin and detect electrical activity from the heart. It transmits electrocardiogram (ECG) signals to monitoring systems, enabling clinicians to assess cardiac rhythms and electrical conduction in real time. This makes it essential for patient monitoring in settings like hospitals and cardiac care units.

  • Is the LDS Monitoring Electrode reusable or single-use?

    The LDS Monitoring Electrode is explicitly supplied as a reusable device. Unlike single-use electrodes, this model is intended for repeated use in clinical environments, provided proper cleaning and maintenance protocols are followed between applications.

  • What regulatory approval does the LDS Monitoring Electrode hold?

    The LDS Monitoring Electrode holds FDA 510(k) clearance under the reference number K821846. It is classified as a Class II device under the product code DRX and was determined to be substantially equivalent to a predicate device by the FDA’s Cardiovascular Advisory Committee in 1982.

  • Are there specific storage instructions for the LDS Monitoring Electrode?

    The provided data does not specify detailed storage conditions for the LDS Monitoring Electrode. However, as a reusable device, it should be stored in a clean, dry environment away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures to maintain its functionality and hygiene between uses.

  • Can the LDS Monitoring Electrode be used with MRI equipment?

    The available records do not include any information regarding the MRI safety of the LDS Monitoring Electrode. Clinicians should verify compatibility with their specific MRI systems before use, as metallic components or conductive materials may pose risks in magnetic fields.
