Monitoring ECG, Arrhythmia, ST and QT Preparation for Monitoring ECG
TM80 Telemetry Monitor Operator’s Manual 7 - 11
A pacemaker patient usually requires a different electrode patch placement configura-
tion than a non-pacemaker patient.
Do not place an ECG electrode directly over the pacemaker generator. Place the elec-
trode patches 2 to 3 inches away from the pacemaker generator area. For example, if the
pacemaker generator is located in the right subclavian area, relocate the Right Arm elec-
trode closer in towards the center of the chest.
