If you are the medical staff in the field of ultrasound, choosing a high-quality medical ultrasound coupling agent can enable them to complete ultrasound examinations more quickly and efficiently. As a medium that fills the gap between the ultrasound probe and the surface of the skin, it is necessary to have high imaging requirements while also providing lubricating properties and protecting the probe.
If an inferior coupling agent is selected, the following situations are likely to occur:
It is easy to dry out, making it difficult to move the probe, and the dryness of the coupling agent can cause discomfort to patients as the probe rubs and rolls on the skin, resulting in a poor patient experience.
The inferior coupling agent will turn into water within 3-5 seconds after being squeezed out, which can flow to other parts of the body and make patients feel uncomfortable, while also affecting the doctor's operation.
After use, inferior coupling agents are difficult to wipe off, which can lead to residual coupling agent and damage the probe, posing a risk of secondary pollution.
Therefore, in the selection of products, doctors have increasingly strict requirements for the quality of the product. So how can we find a high-quality medical ultrasound coupling agent?
We recommend the medical ultrasound coupling agent produced by Ping An Medical, which uses carbomer imported from the United States as the main raw material. The product can maintain a solid jelly-like state for a long time after being squeezed out, is not easy to dry out after being applied, and can adhere well to the surface of the skin, maintaining a moist effect for a long time, providing good coupling acoustic performance and making ultrasound imaging more clear. After use, it can be wiped off easily without leaving any residue.
The most important thing is that this coupling agent does not contain cellulose or petroleum jelly, and it does not erode the ultrasound probe or swell. Inferior coupling agents contain cellulose and petroleum jelly, which carry the risk of causing inflammation and even anaphylactic shock and other immune system reactions.
