Electrode Position for Respiration Monitoring
Place the RA and LL electrodes so that the lungs are between the electrodes.
NOTE
The optimum electrode positions for ECG measurement of a patient
are not always optimum for respiration measurement of the patient.
Select positions suitable for both ECG and respiration measurements, or
positions which have priority for one measurement.
Electrode Position Examples
NOTE
The following examples are when monitoring with 3 electrodes. ECG
cannot be monitored correctly when electrodes are attached as the
following examples when monitoring with 6 electrodes.
Position 1
In this position, respiration measurement is available; however, there is a
difference in amplitude between different patients.
