TM80/TM70 Telemetry Monitor Operator’s Manual
A pacemaker patient usually requires a different electrode patch placement configura-
tion than a non-pacemaker patient.
Do not place an ECG electrode directly over the pacemaker generator. Place the elec-
trode patches 3 to 5 inches away from the pacemaker generator area. For example, if the
pacemaker generator is located in the right subclavian area, relocate the Right Arm elec-
trode closer in towards the center of the chest.
