Connecting and disconnecting ECG electrodes may lead to the detection of
false-positive pacer pulses. If this occurs, the device briefly displays pacer
pulses, although the patient does not have an implanted (internal) pacer.
The ECG monitoring interfaces ECG-M and ECG-D are specified as CF
(cardiac floating). The patient connections are fully insulated and defibrillation-
proof.
The quality of the ECG recordings also depends on the ECG electrodes used:
• Only use ECG electrodes indicated in the list of approved accessories
(see chapter 9.8 Approved Accessories, Spare Parts and Consumables,
p. 224).
• Do not use ECG electrodes whose expiry date indicated on the
packaging has passed.
• Only use ECG electrodes of the same type that originate from an
identical production process (batch).
