6 Patient PreparationReusable ECG Sensors!CautionBaseline drift. Never mix patient electrode types or brands. Dissimilarmetals or other incompatibilities may cause considerable baseline driftand may increase trace recovery time after defibrillation.ElectrolyteNOTE: Watches or jewelry may be damaged by contactwith electrolyte.Cardiac Science Corporation recommends using Signa gel ® electrode gelwith reusable sensors because it provides excellent conductivity betweenthe skin and sensor.Reusable sensors (Welsh bulbs and limb plates) must be kept clean. Dirt orelectrolyte build-up may degrade ECG quality:• Wash after each use (use a mild dish soap if necessary)• Never use a metallic pad to clean plates and Welsh bulbs (toavoid damaging the plating)• Discard if corroded.Applying limb plates!CautionPatient skin irritation. Limb Plates may contain nickel, a material that cancause skin irritation. Monitor the electrode site and, if irritation occurs,use an alternate electrode.1. Expose the arms and legs of the patient.2. Connect sensor straps to the “ears” of the limb plates.6-6 Atria Electrocardiograph Operating Instructions
Reusable ECG Sensors3. Squeeze out a small amount of Signa gel electrode gel on limb plate asillustrated. Spread it evenly over the limb plate surface. Apply thesame amount of electrolyte to each sensor.4. Place sensors firmly on the limb sites. Choose fleshy areas above wristsand ankles. Position so the limb plate will not press against the body ortable when the patient is relaxed. On arms, the screws should pointdownward toward the feet. On legs, the screws should point upward,toward chest.5. Without stretching the strap, wrap it around the limb until a hole linesup with a sensor “ear.” Then stretch the strap and fasten it with thenext hole.6. Connect the limb leads to the four limb plates.Applying Welsh bulb chest sensors!CautionPatient skin irritation. Welsh bulb sensors may contain nickel, a materialthat can cause skin irritation. Monitor the electrode site and, if irritationoccurs, use an alternate electrode.1. Connect the 6 Welsh bulb sensors to the V-leads (C-leads) on thepatient cable.2. Locate the 6 V-lead (C-lead) positions on the patient’s chest (see “RestingECG Lead Placement & Coding Chart” on pg. 6-4).3. Squeeze out a drop of Signa gel electrode gel at each sensor site. Use atongue depressor to spread the electrolyte (ensure it does not touch theelectrolyte from another site).4. Apply the sensors by squeezing the rubber bulb and allowing suction tohold the sensor in place. Only a small dimple should remain on thebulb when it is released.5. Ensure the leads conform to the body contours and no strain is placedon the sensors.6. Wipe off any residual electrolyte and check again to ensure electrolytefrom one site does not touch another site.Atria Electrocardiograph Operating Instructions 6-7
