Bipolar Electrode
Category: Glossary
E-Stim Electrodes are general described as Bipolar, meaning they have two contacts in the electrode, or Monopole when they have a single contact in the electrode.
For E-Stim to work you will need at least two contact points for the current to flow. With Monopole electrodes, you will need two electrodes.
A Flange electrode is an example of a BiPolar design, a Urethral Sound is an example of a MonoPole Electrode.
