Tips to Improve ECG Signal

Placement

Place the CORE 500™ firmly on the patient's chest to get a clean ECG signal. When the CORE 500™ is held vertically, the ECG shown on screen corresponds to a modified lead I.

Interpret in Eko App

Use the Eko App to read and interpret the 3-lead ECG. The ECG tracing on the CORE 500™ is the same as the 1st channel shown in the Eko App.

Skin preparation

• Clean the skin and/or electrodes with 70% IPA wipes to get a better ECG signal. Some wipes are included in the product box.
• ECG gel is recommended for patients with dry skin or significant body hair.
