iHeart Rhythm Manual v1.0.1

Optimal EKG recordings

1 - Make certain that the electrodes are pressed against the skin tightly.

2 - Whether you are sitting or lying, the less movement the better.

3 - Avoid touching the electrodes with your hands or arms.

4 - Try different sites across the chest to obtain recordings displaying the heart rhythm waveforms with large voltages.

5 - If recordings display excessive noise, position yourself further from the computer or any other nearby electrical device.

6 – Excessive chest hair will impair electrocardiographic recordings. Shave hair at the site of electrode attachment to the skin.
