Note:
For best ECG performance, the right leg electrode should always
be connected.
ECG Problem Solving
If ECG signal quality is poor (indicated by wandering baseline,
excessive noise, or muscle or respiration artifact), try the solutions
from the list that follows:
• Make sure that silver/silver-chloride electrodes are being used.
• Make sure that the patient's skin is properly prepared.
• Make sure that the skin is dry.
• Make sure that all electrodes are firmly attached and in good
condition.
• Make sure that the electrodes are positioned on a flat, non-
muscular area.
