Attaching Electrodes to the Patient
CAUTION
Do not reuse disposable products.
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 the correct ECG cannot be
obtained.
Refer to the electrode operator’s manual for details.
1. Carefully remove the backing paper from the
electrode. Avoid touching the adhesive
surface.
2. Place the electrode on the previously cleaned
skin. Pay attention to the electrode lead color
and symbol.
3. Clip the electrode lead to the electrode.
4. Fasten the electrode lead wire with surgical
tape with an extra length of wire between the
tape and the electrode. This lessens the
movement of electrode leads by body
movement and helps stable monitoring.
