Replacing old electrodes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To ensure accurate, safe, and reliable<\/strong> measurements in clinical assessment or study, we recommend you replace your TcpO2 electrodes when the lifetime warranty expires. At this point, normal wear and tear may cause electrodes to degrade and measurement robustness can no longer be guaranteed.<\/p>\n\n\n

Clark-type electrodes are commonly used for conducting TcpO2 measurements. The electrode heats the skin, to increase local blood flow and enhance oxygen diffusion through the skin. The oxygen permeates the sensor’s membrane and reacts with the internal electrolyte solution. The change in pH in the electrolyte reflects the local concentration of oxygen at the measurement site. Our TcpO2 instruments are compatible with Clark-type E5250 electrodes manufactured by our partner Radiometer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Membrane maintenance kits<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

TcpO2 electrodes are covered by a thin, permeable membrane that controls the rate of gas diffusion to the sensor. During use, a layer of silver oxide builds up, which you should remove by cleaning the head and changing the membrane according to the manufacturer’s guidelines. Cleaning and proper maintenance help to extend the functional lifespan of the sensor and ensure robust consistent measurements<\/strong>, by avoiding:
