Electrode placement
1. If animal has a lot of hair, shave it. With alcohol-soaked cotton, wipe the animal's skin to
attach the electrode. Avoid wrinkled or uneven skin, and wipe off alcohol with a dry
cotton towel.
2. Unpack the electrode package and pick up the electrode
3. Remove the rear mounting surface of the electrode. Be careful not to touch the adhesive
side.
4. Attach disposable electrodes to the previously sterilized skin.
5. Connect the lead of the electrode and the wire of the monitor
6. Fix the electrode to the skin, and secure the cable with the remaining length between the
instrument and the electrode with surgical tape. This fixation prevents the electrode from
moving.
