Electrode examples, left to right: arm clamp (reusable), Welsh cup (reusable), tab
electrode (disposable), monitoring electrode (disposable).
•
For reusable electrodes: Use electrode paste, gel, or cream to cover an area
the size of each electrode but no larger. Secure the arm and leg clamps. Apply
the Welsh cups (suction electrodes) to the chest.
•
For disposable tab electrodes: Place the electrode tab between the “jaws” of
the connector. Keep the tab flat. Verify that the metal portion of the connector
makes contact with the skin side of the electrode tab.
•
For all disposable electrodes: Lightly tug on the connector to ensure that the
lead is securely attached. If the electrode comes off, replace it with a new
electrode. If the connector comes off, reconnect it.
