Skin Preparation - Preventice Solutions BodyGuardian MINI PLUS Instruction Manual

Chest placement location
b.
Ensure that BodyGuardian Mini PLUS is positioned properly on the chest. See pages 9-10, 14 for chest placement
locations.
For Strip users, ensure one of two arrows on the Strip is pointing up.
Tip: For the horizontal Strip position, some patients acquire a better signal when the monitor is placed higher up on
the chest, closer to the collarbone, to avoid fleshy tissue areas. BodyGuardian receives a higher quality signal when
placed over firmer areas.
c. Skin preparation
Ensure that the skin on the placement location on your chest has been prepared appropriately:
• Remove hair, excess oils, lotions, perfumes, etc.
• Use either an enclosed saline wipe or soap and water to clean the area. Do not use alcohol wipes. Dry the area
completely.
• Do not abrade the skin.
Replace the Strip or ECG electrodes
1. Ensure that the chest placement location is properly prepared. See 3a. Skin preparation.
