HEART RATE ALARM INTERFERENCE. Poor cable positioning
or improper electrode preparation may cause line isolation
monitor transients to resemble actual cardiac waveforms and
thus inhibit heart rate alarms. To minimize this problem, follow
proper electrode placement and cable positioning guidelines
provided with this device.
The patient's skin may become irritated after prolonged
contact with electrode gel or adhesive.
