What is it indicated for?

The Disposable Adhesive Surface Electrodes are intended for use with recording, monitoring and stimulation equipment for the purpose of stimulating/recording of biopotential signals. Electrodes are applied in the study of biopotentials such as Electroencephalograph (EEG), surface Electromyography (EMG), nerve conduction and Evoked potential signals (EP). Electrodes are non-invasive as they are applied to the, patient's skin using a self-adhesive solid-gel surface. The electrodes are non-sterile and for single patient use only.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
