Global Cardiology Electrodes Market: Restraint
Biocompatibility of cardiology electrodes is one of the primary factors restraining the market growth. As cardiology electrodes are in direct contact with the body, biocompatibility is an essential factor in manufacturing lead insulations and hard materials used for marking the lead electrodes and conductors. Skin-contacting materials such as electro-conductive gel and electrodes should be biocompatible for their intended use.
Cardiology electrodes proceed with the quantification of internal ionic currents, resulting in the diagnosis of various cardiovascular disorders. The device works through the provision of an electrical contact between the apparatus used to monitor activities and the patient. For instance, according to GE healthcare, a medical technology company’s report, February 2022, as with any diagnostic tool, proper ECG lead placement on both women and men is crucial for effective use. Misplacements can result in inaccurate waveform readings, which may result in false-positive or false-negative diagnoses of illnesses such as arrhythmias or myocardial infarction. The electrodes cannot be fabricated to be completely polarizable or non-polarizable. Ag/AgCl contacts are an example of a non-polarizable electrode that cannot be implanted due to biocompatibility issues. Moreover, when the electrodes are traditionally handcrafted, they generate reproducibility issues. Hence, the factors mentioned above may restrain the growth of the cardiology electrodes market during the forecast period.
