What is ECT machine?
An ECT machine is used to administer electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). ECT machines are connected to electrodes placed on the patient's scalp and administer a current of electricity that runs between the electrodes and through the patient's brain (the patient is anesthetized). ECT is primarily used to treat severe clinical depression.
Why are electrodes applied to the fleshy part of limbs?
to reduce AC interference
What has the author S H Hoke written?
S. H Hoke has written: 'Flouride and iodide selective electrodes applied to oilfield brine analysis' -- subject(s): Analysis, Electrodes, Ion selective, Ion selective Electrodes, Oil field brines
Do electrodes provide moisture and aid in conduction?
Electrodes do not provide moisture themselves, but they can help conduct electrical impulses through the skin if they are wet or have a conductive gel applied to them. Moisture can improve the connection between the skin and the electrodes, allowing for better conductivity and more accurate readings.
How are evoked potential studies done?
The person performing the test locates and marks specific spots on the patient's head for placement of electrodes. These spots are cleaned, and an adhesive conducting paste is applied. Cup electrodes are attached. For somatosensory.
How is electrocardiography performed?
patient disrobes from the waist up, and electrodes (tiny wires in adhesive pads) are applied to specific sites on the arms, legs, and chest. When attached, these electrodes are called leads; three to 12 leads may be employed for the procedure
How is electrocariography performed?

How do ions become molecules at the electrodes?
Ions can become molecules at the electrodes through electrodeposition or electrochemical reduction or oxidation processes. When a specific voltage is applied across the electrodes, ions gain or lose electrons, leading to the formation of neutral molecules. This can occur when ions react with other species present at the electrodes or in the electrolyte.
Can electrodes be applied to skin?
Physically, yes they can. However it is a dangerous practice and often lethal. As can be witnessed by use of the electric chair for carrying out sentences of capital punishment.
What are depth electrodes?
They are electrodes surgically-implanted into the brain
What is the principle behine in conductive level sensor?
A conductive level sensor changes its output when the fluid level in a container reaches the sensor. Two electrodes are placed a small distance apart and a voltage is applied between them. There is a very small current when the electrodes are in air. When a fluid touches both electrodes, the current changes (usually increases). A sensitive amplifier detects the change in current and changes the output.
Why are electrodes applied to the fleshy part of a limb?
Electrodes are placed on the fleshy part of a limb to ensure good electrical conductivity and contact with the muscle tissue. This placement helps to accurately measure and stimulate the muscle activity during electrotherapy or biofeedback sessions.
