Compatible Monitor Models

The EL-TMX5-90S-A is listed for the single telemetry model shown in the Compatible Monitor Models table on the Specifications tab. Please confirm that your equipment matches that entry before ordering, or call 855-477-8866 and our team will help you check.

Design and Construction

Five leads end in snap electrode ends and follow AHA colors: RA white, LA black, LL red, RL green, and V brown. The leadwire is shielded, its leads join a molded distal connector, and the overall length is 3.0 ft (0.9 m). The lead type designation appears in the Specifications table. Being reusable, it should be cleaned per facility protocol between patients and inspected before it is reused. Each leadwire is packed one per bag.

When to Replace Your 5-Lead Telemetry ECG Leadwire

Telemetry leadwires flex constantly as patients move, so wear tends to appear first near the snaps and where the leads meet the connector. Replace the leadwire if a snap has lost its grip on the electrode, if the insulation is nicked or cracked, or if the connector shows bent pins or a damaged housing. Dropouts in the ECG signal, lead-off alerts that come and go, and noise that changes with patient movement are other common indicators.

Cross Reference and Interchange Part Numbers

No OEM numbers beyond the replaced part, 989803171821, are listed for this leadwire. Aftermarket interchange numbers appear in the Cross Reference / Interchange Part Numbers table on the Specifications tab.
