NOTE
• For a patient with frequent body movement, rub the sites with skinPure skin preparation
gel. However, do not use skinPure skin preparation gel on sensitive skin.
• Do not place electrodes on a wound or on an inflamed, wrinkled or uneven skin surface.
Attaching Electrodes to the Patient
CAUTION
Do not reuse disposable parts and accessories.
NOTE
• To maintain good contact between the electrode and skin, check that the paste of the
disposable electrode is not dry.
• When contact between the disposable electrode and skin becomes poor, replace
electrodes with new ones immediately. Otherwise, contact impedance between the skin
and the electrode increases and accurate ECG and respiration waveforms cannot be
obtained.
