Can Axelgaard electrodes be used on more than one patient?
No. According to FDA guidelines, the electrodes pose a threat of cross-contamination if used on multiple patients. The electrodes should only be used on a single patient, and a new set used for each individual. Every time an electrode lifts off the skin, it can pull with it dirt, skin cells, germs, and other debris that stick to, and can become absorbed into the gel.
How many Axelgaard electrodes can be used at one time?
The amount of electrodes used at a single time depends entirely on the individual, any potential health conditions, and the size and strength utilized in a session. For example, when using smaller electrodes on a low setting, more may be used. With larger electrodes or with higher configurations, it is best to use fewer pads at once. Consult with a doctor or clinician before use if you have concerns about using Axelgaard with existing health conditions.
Are Axelgaard electrodes disposable?
Yes. Once an electrode displays any signs of wear or tear, it is time to dispose of them. You can replace them with a new set of electrodes. Do not use electrodes that are torn or damaged.
