ECG Recording Tips

- If the reading is “unable to determine” or you receive a “Contact Separation” message,

you can reset the reading and try again.

- Moisten your wrist underneath the watch, and your index finger that you use to touch

the top contact, for a better connection.

- Relax, stay still and try not to talk. Any movement may disturb the recording.

- Maintain constant and firm pressure on the watch to help ensure that the electrodes on

the bottom of the watch make good contact with your wrist.

- Do not let your hands touch each other; that may disrupt the signal.

- Do not apply any pressure to the bottom of your wrist underneath the everbeat watch

because it can push the watch away from skin contact.

- Try it 2 or 3 times, watching the ECG display closely for a clean signal as shown in Figure

11. If you are not getting a good signal, the progress bar will not move. After a couple of

attempts, you will see what works best for you. You can always restart and try again.

- Some patients prefer different fingers. It does not matter to the everbeat system, so try

whichever finger feel the most comfortable.

- You can also switch wrists if that helps. If you do so, be sure to configure the everbeat

App by going to ECG settings and setting the hand switch accordingly.
