VetSpecs® UE-3 Universal Esophageal ECG & Respiration Probes

Description

Are you tired of dealing with erratic ECG readings and inaccurate heart rates when using painful alligator clips? Try the UE-3 universal esophageal probes! These probes enable all ECG monitors to register ECG in veterinary patients without attaching leads to the body or legs. When used with modern multiparameter monitors, the UE-3 probes can simultaneously record both ECG and respiration.

The UE-3 probes come in three sizes: one for medium and large dogs, one for cats and small dogs, and one for kittens and similarly sized exotic animals. With these probes, monitoring vital signs during surgery becomes easier and more effective. To use, simply select the appropriate size for the patient and slide the probe into the esophagus. Once inserted, it stays in place throughout the procedure. Thanks to its proximity to the heart and lungs, and excellent electrode-to-tissue contact, the probe provides large, stable ECG and respiratory waveforms, with accurate heart and respiratory rates, even in the smallest patients.

For monitors using ECG leads with alligator clips, just clip the leads onto the probe’s connection board. For monitors with standard ECG snap leads, simply snap the leads onto the connection board. For more information, please watch the video above.

We also offer two other types of ECG electrodes compatible with all monitors using standard ECG snap leads: the Limb Plates with Velcro Straps (set of 3), ideal for dentistry, post-operative recovery, and ICU monitoring, and the Atraumatic Flat Clips (set of 3), perfect for quick ECG screenings.
