Electrode Tips & Tricks

To ensure the optimal use of your Sanibel disposable tab or snap electrodes, please observe the following:

• Ensure that the skin is clean and dry before placing the electrode
  o It is recommended to use an alcohol wipe or similar to clean the newborn skin,

  especially if the skin is greasy or oily, prior to placing the electrodes

• When applying electrodes to the skin, press down firmly on the entire electrode surface to improve adhesion

• Use a small amount of conductive electrode gel to improve impedances, if required

• Use pinch or button cables for snap electrodes and alligator cables for tab electrodes

• Electrode adhesion time is limited to a maximum of 1 hour

• Store unused electrodes in unopened pouches at temperatures 5°-27° C / 40°-80° F

• Use before the expiry date printed on the pouch
