Integrated ECG Cable – All-in-one ECG cable combining trunk cable and leadwires

Technical and specification details

1.Engineered for Low-Noise Patient-Side Signal Acquisition
Because ECG leadwires are in direct contact with the patient, motion-induced noise and electrical interference must be carefully controlled.
To achieve stable ECG signal acquisition, patient-side leadwires may incorporate:
•Fine-strand conductors for improved flexibility
•Individual core coatings or semi-conductive layers to reduce triboelectric noise
•Optimized internal structure to minimize motion artifacts
•Controlled impedance to maintain waveform consistency
These design considerations are especially important for Holter ECG monitoring, wearable ECG monitors, and long-term ECG monitoring devices, where patient movement is unavoidable.
2.All-in-One Design for Easy and Efficient Use
Unlike traditional ECG systems that separate trunk cables and leadwires, an integrated ECG cable features:
•One continuous cable assembly from monitor to patient
•Fewer connectors and contact points
•Simplified cable management at the bedside
This all-in-one structure improves ease of use for clinicians while reducing the risk of intermittent signal loss caused by loose or worn interfaces.
•Designed for long-term ambulatory ECG monitoring
•Typically connects to a portable Holter recorder
•Emphasis on ultra-lightweight structure and low motion noise
•Used in Holter ECG monitoring and wearable ECG monitoring devices
While both require low-noise performance, integrated ECG cables prioritize system simplicity and clinical workflow, whereas Holter cables focus on mobility and extended wear comfort.
3.Patient-Side Electrode Terminations for ECG Leadwires
The patient end of ECG leadwires plays a critical role in both signal integrity and clinical usability.
Different electrode termination types are selected based on monitoring duration, electrode type, and clinical workflow.
Our ECG leadwires support a wide range of patient-side electrode connections, including:
Snap (Stud) Electrodes
Snap-style terminations are widely used with disposable ECG electrodes, especially in hospital monitoring and short-term diagnostic applications.
•Secure mechanical connection
•Fast attachment and removal
•Commonly used for 12-lead ECG monitoring and bedside ECG monitors
Clip Electrodes
Clip-type leadwires are typically used with reusable ECG electrodes, such as limb electrodes.
•Suitable for repeated use
•Strong mechanical retention
•Common in ECG monitoring systems and ECG hospital monitors
Tab / Pin Electrodes
Tab or pin-style terminations are often applied in portable ECG monitors and Holter ECG monitoring devices.
•Compact structure for lightweight systems
•Reliable electrical contact under movement
•Suitable for continuous ECG monitoring and wearable ECG monitoring devices

Compliance and Certification

1.Connector Compatibility with ECG Equipment
Integrated ECG cables can be designed to match a wide range of ECG equipment and ECG monitors, including:
•Standard monitor-side connectors
•Brand-specific ECG monitor interfaces
•Custom connector solutions for OEM ECG monitoring devices
This allows seamless integration into existing ECG systems without compromising usability or signal quality.
2.Application scenarios
•Holter ECG monitoring
•Wearable ECG monitors
•Long-term ECG monitoring devices

Core Competencies and Differentiation

1.Electrical Structure Optimized for Stable ECG Signal Transmission
To support accurate ECG monitoring, integrated ECG cables are engineered with carefully designed internal structures:
•Multi-core configurations to support 3-lead, 5-lead, or 12-lead ECG monitoring
•Balanced conductor layouts to maintain consistent impedance
•Optional shielding and low-noise design to reduce motion artifacts
These features ensure stable signal transmission across the entire cable length, supporting continuous ECG monitoring and realtime ECG waveform acquisition.
2.Materials Selected for Durability and Patient Comfort
Integrated ECG cables must balance mechanical durability with patient-side flexibility. Common material options include:
•TPU / TPE jackets for flexibility, abrasion resistance, and easy cleaning
•Soft jacket formulations for patient comfort during long-term ECG monitoring
•Reinforced strain-relief structures at both monitor and patient ends
Material selection can be customized based on application, including hospital ECG monitoring, portable ECG monitors, and home ECG monitoring systems.
