8.4. Preparing for ECG Monitoring
8.4.1. Preparing the Patient Skin
Proper skin preparation is necessary for good signal quality at the electrode sites, as the
skin is a poor conductor of electricity. To properly prepare the skin, choose flat areas and
then follow this procedure:
1. Shave hair from skin at chosen electrode sites.
2. Gently rub skin surface at sites to remove dead skin cells.
3. Thoroughly cleanse the site with a mild soap and water solution.
4. Dry the skin completely before applying electrodes.
