6.1 Instructions for ECG Monitoring
6.1.1 ECG Monitor Definition
ECG monitoring generates continuous waveforms of animal ECG to accurately
evaluate the physiological state of the animal at that time. The portable monitor only
displays one ECG waveform in three lead state.
•
The parameters of monitoring display include heart rate(HR).
•
The above parameters can be used as alarm parameters.
6.1.2 ECG Monitor Points for Attention
Warning
•
When using this portable monitor to monitor ECG signal, the ECG cable provided
by Woodley Equipment Company must be used.
•
Ensure no contact to other conductive parts.
•
Ensure all ECG electrodes, including neutral electrodes, are attached to the
animal.
•
It is recommended not to use equipment with electrical radiation near ECG /
respiratory measurement.
6.2 ECG Monitoring Operation Method
6.2.1 Preparation
1) Prepare the skin before placing the electrode.
•
If necessary, shave the fur at the place where the electrode is placed.
•
Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water. Do not use pure alcohol as this will
increase the skin resistance.
•
Dry wipe the skin to increase capillary blood flow in the tissue and remove skin
debris and oil.
•
Confirm that the power supply of the monitor is normal.
Warnings
•
The electrode should be attached carefully and the contact should be confirmed.
•
In order to protect the environment, used electrodes must be recycled or properly
treated.
•
Before monitoring, it is necessary to check whether the lead is good condition.
After pulling out the ECG cable, the screen will display the error message of lead
falling off and simultaneously trigger the sound alarm.
