Solventum™ 3M Red Dot™ ECG Monitoring Electrodes, 2560 (Foam, Diaphoretic) 50/pkg

Key Features & Benefits

• Extended 5-Day Wear Time: Clinically tested for up to five days of continuous wear, offering long-lasting adhesion while maintaining skin integrity and patient comfort.
• Diaphoretic & Fluid Resistant: High-performance adhesive engineered specifically to adhere to moist or sweaty skin, making it ideal for intensive monitoring and high-moisture conditions.
• High-Conductivity Sticky Gel: Provides immediate, high-quality trace signal clarity for accurate patient data collection across continuous cardiac monitoring.
• Compact & Flexible Foam Backing: Small footprint allows easy placement on difficult body contours while minimizing skin irritation and resisting fluids.
• Organized Cord Delivery System: Conveniently packaged on individual 10-electrode strips for quick application, reduced setup time, and minimal product waste.
• Radiopaque Construction: Features solid radiopaque performance suitable for standard cardiac telemetry and monitoring events.

Product Overview

The Solventum™ Red Dot™ 2560 ECG Monitoring Electrode (formerly 3M™ Red Dot™ 2560) is designed for high-demand diagnostic environments requiring continuous, long-term monitoring. Engineered with a fluid-resistant foam backing and an aggressive diaphoretic adhesive, the 2560 series excels on patients with moist or sweaty skin where standard electrodes fail.

Each electrode utilizes conductive sticky gel technology, ensuring larger adhesive coverage and reliable signal collection. Whether used in ER units, telemetry, Holter monitoring, or stress testing, the compact size allows for versatile placement while preserving patient comfort over multi-day wear cycles.

Recommended Applications

• Telemetry & Holter / Event Monitoring
• Echocardiograms & Stress Testing
• Emergency Department & Intensive Care (ICU)
• Operating Room (OR) & Post-Anesthesia Care (PACU)

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How long can the 3M / Solventum Red Dot 2560 electrodes remain on a patient?

The 2560 electrodes are clinically tested for up to 5 days of continuous wear time, making them an excellent choice for telemetry and Holter monitoring.

Are Red Dot 2560 electrodes suitable for diaphoresis (sweaty skin)?

Yes! The 2560 features a specialized diaphoretic adhesive and fluid-resistant foam backing designed specifically to maintain high adhesion on moist skin.

What is the difference between tab electrodes (like 2330/2360) and 2560 electrodes?

Tab electrodes (2330/2360) are non-snap tab designs meant for short-term, resting 12-lead EKGs. The 2560 model features a snap connection with foam backing and sticky gel engineered for longer-term, active monitoring (such as telemetry, Holter tests, or stress testing).
