Routine maintenance of electrocardiographs

The ECG machine should be maintained and serviced on a regular basis to prolong the life of the ECG machine and its various components. The specific requirements are as follows.

1The electrodes should be kept clean after the daily ECG tracing. Copper alloy electrodes made of rust spots, fine sandpaper can be used to wipe off the rust spots, and then soaked in saline overnight, so that the surface of the formation of a stable performance of the film. Silver-plated electrodes can be washed and dried with water to avoid scratching the silver-plated layer.

The core or shield of the lead cable is easy to break and damage, especially near the ends of the joints, do not pull or twist, the collection should be coiled into a circle with a larger diameter or hanging, to avoid excessive twisting or folding of the acute angle.

1 ⒈ 3 AC and DC electrocardiograph, should be charged in a timely manner according to the instructions to extend battery life.

4 ⒈ ECG machine should avoid high temperature, sun, moisture, dust or impact, with a good dust cover.

1 ⒈ 5 every six months to open the cover for dust, moisture and inspection. Timely removal of dust in the circuit board to ensure that the machine is dry, to avoid short circuits caused by moisture or dust, damage to the circuit board.

6 ⒈ by the medical instrument maintenance department to regularly test the performance of the ECG machine. Hot pen recording electrocardiogram machine should be based on the thermal sensitivity of the recording paper and paper speed, adjust the pressure and temperature of the hot pen. Electrocardiogram machine in use often pseudo-differential interference faults, seriously affecting the normal tracing of the electrocardiogram, should be investigated in a timely manner.
