Once damage or aging of the patient cable is found, replace it
with a new one immediately.
For the replacement cycle of the patient cable, refer to its
instructions for use.
10.4.3 Reusable Electrodes
Follow the below guidelines to maintain the reusable electrodes:
Clean the electrodes after each use and make sure there is no
remainder gel on them.
Keep the rubber bulbs of chest electrodes away from direct
sunshine and excessive temperature.
After long-term use, the surfaces of electrodes will be oxidized
because of erosion and other causes. At this time, electrodes
should be replaced to achieve high-quality ECG records.
For the replacement cycle of the electrodes, refer to their
instructions for use.
10.4.4 Recording Paper
Follow the below guidelines to store the thermal recording paper:
Recording paper should be stored in dry, dark and cool area,
avoiding excessive temperature, humidity and sunshine.
Do not put the paper under fluorescence for a long time.
Be sure that there is no polyvinyl chloride or other chemicals in
the storage environment, which will lead to color change of the
paper.
Do not stack up the recording paper for a long time, or else the
ECG record may trans-print each other.
