Try to take care in preparing the patient’s skin for applica-tion of the adhesive skin patches (electrodes). Good skin preparation means be�er ECG signal traces that in turn are easier for the doctor to review and evaluate.Advise the patient to change their electrodes every two days. When re-applied, change their location slightly to prevent skin irritation. If the patient complains of skin irritation, ask them to call Medicomp Customer Service at 800-234-3278. Alternative Patches may be available to reduce irritation.
1. Choose areas of the chest that are �at and not very muscular. Avoid skin folds or creases, irritated skin or scars.
2. Shave areas with hair using the skin patch (electrode) as a guide for the size of the area to shave. �is insures good contact and makes electrode re-moval easier.
3. Wash each site well with PLAIN soap and water. (You should not use soap that contains lotion or oil.) Dry thoroughly.
4. Snap the wires onto the electrodes while they are still a�ached to the strip of plastic backing.
5. One by one, peel each electrode from the backing and apply it to the chest, using the placement in the illustrations.
Please refer to the Patient Guide for further instructions on monitor setup and use. Video tutorials are available at the Arrhythmia Access website for viewing by clinical sta� and patients. Click the Training Videos bu�on at Arrhythmia Access.
