SE-1515 PC ECG User Manual Preparations Before Operation - 24 - Chapter 3 Preparations Before Operation 3.1 Preparing the Patient NOTE: Correct operation for the best-quality ECG is very important. 3.1.1 Instructing the Patient 1. Before attaching the electrodes, greet the patient and explain the procedure. Explaining the procedure decreases the patient's anxiety. 2. Privacy is important for relaxation. When possible, prepare the patient in a quiet room or area where others can't see the patient. Use hangings beside the bed during ECG exam if other people are in the room. 3. Reassure the patient that the procedure is painless. 4. Make sure that the patient is comfortable. Once the electrodes and patient cable are connected, inform the patients that: 1) No talking 2) Breathe smoothly 3) Try to be calm 4) Not to chew or keep his teeth firmly The more relaxed the patient is, the less will the ECG wave is disturbed. 3.1.2 Cleaning the Skin The skin is a poor conductor of electricity and frequently creates artifacts that distort the ECG signals. There is natural resistance on the skin surface due to dry, dead epidermal cells, oils and dirt To clean the skin 1. Shave hair from electrode sites, if necessary. Excessive hair prevents a good connection. 2. Wash the area thoroughly with soap and water. 3. Dry the skin to increase capillary blood flow and to remove the dead, dry skin cells and oils. 4. Use the disposable frosting film in the standard accessory list to get good ECG waveform. NOTE: Rub the skin with a gauze pad to increase capillary blood flow if you don't operate the steps above.
