3-Wire Hook-up 5-Wire Hook-up
For women with large breasts, the following electrode positions are recommended:
● Red in the left axillary line
● Black in the right axillary line
This lead placement may eliminate potential skin prep problems and minimizes occurrences of
artifact.
Step 2 - Prepare the Skin
In order to obtain the best ECG recording, the following procedure is recommended for initial
patient hookup:
1. Whenever possible, be in an upright sitting position. This may be useful if any setup
problems occur that concern the signal voltage.
2. Following the lead placement diagram, select sites that are flat and bony. Avoid skin
folds or creases, irritated skin or scar tissue, and highly muscular areas.
3. If necessary, shave an area at each electrode site slightly larger than the size of the
electrode.
4. If powder, lotion, sunblock, etc. has been applied to the chest, or if skin is excessively
oily, wash each site with plain soap and water. Do not use a soap that contains lotion or
oil.
5. Skin-prep pads (found in alcohol prep-pad type packaging) can be used to clean and
prepare skin for initial application.
