Attaching the PCG Microphone
Attach the PCG microphone.
1 Attach the dual-side adhesive tape to
the adhesion surface of the PCG
microphone.
Use the dual-side adhesive tape designed for the PCG
microphones (DA-30, optional).
The microphones can also be secured with tape such as
surgical tape.
2 Attach the PCG microphone to the
second intercostal sternum.
• If there is a risk of bone fracture due to osteoporosis, etc, be particularly careful when raising
the patient's arm or leg to place it on the limb cushion. Special care must also be taken when
attaching cuffs to these patients.
Second Intercostal Sternum
• The dual-side adhesive tape cannot be reused.
• Take measurements in a quiet room with no noise or vibration in the surrounding area.
• Do not drop the PCG microphone, subject it to strong impact or pull strongly on the cable.
