Attention

Put the green and the red electrodes at opposite angle so as to get the best respiration wave.
You should avoid putting the electrodes over the liver area and the ventricle of the heart in the
line between the respiratory electrodes, which can help to avoid cardiac overlay or artifacts
from the pulsing blood flow. This is particularly important for neonates.
Lateral thoracic expansion
Some patients’ thorax may expand laterally, especially for the neonates. At the right time, two RESP electrodes
shall be placed on the right mid-axillary line and the left lateral thorax where the patient has the maximum
breathing movement to make sure that the breathing waveform is distinct. See the following figure:
Abdominal respiration
For some patients the chest movement is limited so they primarily conduct a abdominal respiration And right
now, you shall remove the electrode which was placed on the left leg to the left abdomen where there is
maximum expansion to make sure the breathing waveform is clear. See the following figure:
Attention

RESP monitoring cannot be applied to the patient who moves frequently, because it may lead
to wrong alarms.
