 Mentally prepare the subject for the examination in order to eliminate pain
and consequently tachycardia and muscle tremor.
 Ambient temperature should be at least 23 °C to avoid shivering; make sure
that the subject is lying comfortably on a suitable couch or bed and
eliminate all sources of noise.
 Check the condition of your equipment to ensure proper signal sampling.
 Make sure that the chest electrodes are positioned according to
international standards and pay attention to polarity of the limb and chest
electrode cables.
 The subject should try to avoid movement during the measurement
because this can lead to motion artifacts.
For high-quality ECG recording, certain criteria have to be met:
10.1.5 Basic Conditions for ECG Recording
10.1.6 Preparing for the Measurement
1. Attach electrodes
Procedure:
 Clean the subject's skin with a skin-sensitive agent to remove probable fatty
residues.
Make sure that the skin is dry before applying the electrodes.
Only the supplied disposable electrodes are to be used:
Remove protecting foil and attach the electrode to the skin.
2. Connect the ECG amplifier electrode cables with the electrodes.
Only use original electrode cables delivered by ERT. If the wrong cable
is used the defibrillation energy delivered to the patient can decrease,
the device can be damaged, or electric shock to the operator or other
persons occur.
