Chest Electrode Connection:
1) Ensure that the electrodes are clean;
2) Clean the electrode area on the chest surface with 75% alcohol;
3) Daub the round area of 25mm in diameter on each electrode site with gel evenly;
4) Place a small amount of gel on the brim of the chest electrode’s metal cup;
5) Place the electrode on the chest electrode site and squeeze the suction bulb. Unclench it
and the electrode is adsorbed on the chest;
6) Attach all chest electrodes in the same way.
NOTE: Long-time measurement with a strong negative pressure on the suction bulb
may cause reddening of the skin. When using the electrode on kids or
patients with delicate skin, squeeze the suction bulb lightly.
3.3.3 Attaching the Disposable Electrodes
CAUTION
The disposable electrodes can only be used for one time.
Connect the snap socket adapter to the disposable electrode.
The quality of ECG waveform will be affected by the contact resistance between the patient and
the electrode. In order to get a high-quality ECG, the skin-electrode resistance must be minimized
while connecting electrodes.
