Preparing for Resp Monitoring
10.4.1
Preparing the Patient
Follow this procedure to prepare the patient:
1.
Shave hair from skin at chosen sites.
2.
Gently rub skin surface at sites to remove dead skin cells.
3.
Thoroughly cleanse the site with a mild soap and water solution.
4.
Dry the skin completely before applying the electrodes.
CAUTION
•
Proper skin preparation is necessary for good signal quality at the electrode site, as the skin is a poor
conductor of electricity.
