15.4 Steps of Monitoring
15.4.1
Preparation
Ask the patient to remove outer clothing on upper body:
(a) As skin is poor conductor of electricity, to get a good contact of the electrode and the skin, it is
important to make preparation of the patient s' skin.
(b) If necessary, shave the area for the electrode.
(c) Thoroughly clean the skin with soap and water.(Do not use ether or pure alcohol, because they will
increase the resistance of the skin).
(d) Dry and rub the skin in order to increase the capillary blood flow and remove skin debris and oil.
(e) Attach the alligator clip prior to placement of the electrode.
(f) Place electrodes on the patient. If the electrodes used do not have conductive gel, apply the
conductive gel before placement.
(g) Connect the electrode lead and the patient cable.
(h) Check that the monitor power is on.
