"Doctor, this sticky gel is running down my neck!" This is a common patientcomplaint in ultrasound rooms. When an ultrasound gel has too low a viscosity,it can liquefy and run during procedures, which soils clothing, causes patientdiscomfort, and may lead to probe slippage that affects image stability andincreases complaints.
Liquefying is often caused by poor thixotropic and rheological design, meaningthe gel cannot quickly recover its viscosity after being subjected to shearforces during application. High-quality Medical Ultrasound Gel should exhibitnon-Newtonian fluid characteristics, remaining smooth during application butquickly recovering viscosity when static to stay in the scanning area. Thishelps ensure clear imaging and prevents dripping, enhancing patient comfort andreducing clinical friction.
To address this clinical issue, Pingchuang Medical utilizes high-qualityimported Carbomer combined with its proprietary HKH production technology. Thisprocess gives the gel excellent rheological properties that help preventliquefaction and runoff. We offer customized packaging sizes ranging from 12g to 5L to meet various clinical needs. Choosing FDA/CE-certified products fromPingchuang represents a commitment to quality and patient care.
