RM Electrode® Canine

Description on benefits of device and innovation.

Product

The first ever soft ERG electrode designed for canine patients.

Decreasing test time and ERG variability while increasing comfort and safety. First ever soft contact lens electrode designed specifically for canines.

Each trace plots the average of four responses obtained with RM Electrode Canine (blue) and ERG Jet (orange) electrodes.Each pair of waveforms is from a different canine patient. In all cases the amplitude and SNR of signals obtained with the RM Electrode Canine met or exceeded those obtained with the Jet.

In all cases, four usable responses were obtained in far less time with the RM Electrode Canine. Suitable for all full-field ERG testing protocols.

The RM Electrode™ – Canine incorporates a unique light-scattering property that reduces the requirement for stimulus alignment with the eye.  Consistent responses can be obtained in less time with restless patients.

FAQs

Is there a need for an another ERG Electrode?

Yes! Using an electrode that is optimized for signal quality and repeatability will shorten test times and improve diagnostic power.

Is the RM Electrode FDA cleared?

Yes, the RM Electrode is FDA cleared. It is indicated for use in patients aged 12 years and above undergoing diagnostic full-field electroretinogram (ERG) recording procedures.

Is the RM Electrode available for sale outside of the United States?

No, the RM Electrode is currently not available for sale outside of the United States. For use of the RM Electrode under an IRB approved protocol, please contact us.

What ERG test can I do with the RM Electrode?

The RM Electrode is cleared for full-field electroretinogram (ERG) recording procedures.

Can I reuse the RM Electrode?

No, the RM Electrode is a single-use disposable electrode. It must not be re-sterilized or re-used.

Is the RM Electrode shipped sterile?

Yes, the RM Electrode is shipped sterile.

Can I use the RM Electrode on children?

The RM Electrode is cleared for use in patients aged 12 years and over.

Is the RM Electrode compatible with my ERG system?

The RM Electrode is compatible with most ERG systems. Please contact us if the RM Electrode is not compatible with your ERG system.

Can I use my existing reference ranges if I switch to the RM Electrode?

Reference ranges obtained using the Burian Allen (unipolar) Electrode or the ERG-Jet can be used when recording with the RM Electrode. We are working to develop conversion factors for all other electrode types.

Is the RM Electrode suitable for my long research protocols?

The RM Electrode is not indicated to be used for more than one hour.

How do I install the RM Electrode?

Please refer to page 2 of the Instructions for Use for RM Electrode installation instructions. Installation video demonstrating the installation steps is coming soon!
