9. Appendix A
9.a Patient preparation.
 Proper patient preparation is the most important factor in
obtaining proper results from a system. If electrodes are
applied to improperly prepared skin site then this may
result in excessive base line shift and severe artifact while
obtaining an ECG.
 Apply some jelly to the electrode site and thoroughly rub
the site with gauze till it becomes slightly red. This
removes the horny non-conducting layer of the epidermis
enabling a good electric contact with the body fluids.
 Remove all the traces of jelly by wiping the abraded site
with warm dry cloth and completely dry up the site with
dry towel. The skin must be clean, dry and completely
free of jelly for the electrodes to remain well in position
till the end of ECG acquisition.
 Take an electrode and peel it of from its plastic backing.
Finger contact with the adhesive should be minimized and
jell in the foam pad should not be disturbed. If the jell has
dried out then discard the electrode.
