Abstract

ECG electrodes can cause allergic contact dermatitis. We report two unusual cases of allergic contact dermatitis to ECG electrodes.

Özet

Elektrokardiyografi (EKG) monitörizasyonu sırasında kullanılan elektrotlara ait alerjik kontakt dermatit görülebilir. Bu olgu sunumunda EKG elektroduna bağlı kontakt dermatit gelişen, atopik olmayan iki hasta bildirilmektedir.
