Benjamin WoodsAug 17, 2025
Why is there ECG noise on my Medrad Measuring Instruments?
- V
  Vanessa HernandezAug 17, 2025
  If the ECG on your Medrad Measuring Instruments is showing noise or is intermittently malfunctioning, first, try re-prepping the patient's skin. If that doesn't work, reposition or replace the electrodes. Also, check the ECG settings to ensure the line frequency/filter is correct. If the problem persists, the fiber optic cable or the ECG module may be defective and need replacement.
