What Is the Draeger 5956441 Compatible 3/5-Lead ECG Leadwire?

The IPR Medical EL-SMB3-90S-A is a compatible aftermarket (not OEM) 3/5-lead ECG leadwire that replaces the Draeger 5956441 and Draeger MS16233. It carries snap electrode ends and a Siemens Dual-Pin lead type, its lead placement is listed as limb lead, and it measures 3.0 ft (0.9 m). This is a reusable leadwire intended for ECG monitoring.

Compatible Monitor Models

Compatibility for this part spans several manufacturers. It includes select Draeger models such as the Infinity Delta, Infinity Gamma XL, and Infinity Vista XL, as well as the SC 6000, SC 7000, and SC 9000. Select Fukuda Denshi Dynascope models, select Kontron models such as the Kolormon and Micromon, and select Skanray / Larsen & Toubro, DRE, Infinium, and Schiller models are listed too, along with the Arrow AutoCAT2. Every listed model is spelled out on the Specifications tab, so match your monitor there first.

Design and Construction

The EL-SMB3-90S-A is built as a 3/5-lead leadwire with snap electrode ends and limb lead placement. Its leads follow AHA color coding and are shielded, terminating at a molded distal connector with a Siemens Dual-Pin lead type over a 3.0 ft (0.9 m) length. Clean this reusable leadwire between patients as your facility protocol specifies; each one is packed individually in a bag.

When to Replace Your 3/5-Lead ECG Leadwire

Watch for snaps that have worn loose and no longer seat firmly on the electrode, and for any lead whose jacket is cracked, flattened, or cut. A molded connector with a broken housing or bent contacts is another reason to replace the leadwire rather than keep it in rotation. When traces turn noisy or lead-off alerts keep returning despite fresh electrodes, substituting a known-good leadwire is a quick way to isolate the cause.

Cross Reference and Interchange Part Numbers

This compatible leadwire cross-references to Draeger 5956441 and Draeger MS16233. Its aftermarket interchange numbers are grouped by brand in the cross-reference table on the Specifications tab.
