Introduction
The Principle of ECG/EKG
Human heart is able to beat as the electrical impulse passes across and
through it, and the beat accompanies producing electric activity. An
ECG/EKG does not measure the movement of your heartbeat but rather
the electrical activity, it is recorded by measuring the potential difference
of particular surface part of body by the electronics instrument.

(ECG) measurements of your heart rhythm of each 30 second period. These
ECG readings can monitor your condition more easily. Cardio care unit is
designed for prescription purpose, record, store and display the ECG
waveform and heart rate that it can help doctor to know the patient's
condition. This unit is intended for use on the adult population over 20 years
old.

Important Notes on Taking Measurement
In order to obtain an accurate ECG/EKG reading, it is important that
measurement is taken correctly. Before taking measurement for the first
time, read these instructions carefully and make sure you observe the
following points each time you take measurement.
．Make sure that the electrodes are directly touching your skin.
．If your hand or skin is dry, wipe them with a damp towel so that
they are slightly moist.
．If the electrodes are dirty, wipe any dirt off with a soft cloth or a cotton
swab moistened with disinfectant alcohol.
．Do not use disinfectant alcohol to clean the unit except the electrodes.
．Do not move during measurement.
．Movement including talking, coughing, or sneezing during
measurement can affect the measurement results.
．If the position of your finger or arm is inappropriate during measurement,
the results may be inaccurate, so be sure to check their positions
before taking a measurement.
．After taking measurement, disinfect the electrodes by wiping them
with a soft cloth or cotton swab moistened with disinfectant alcohol. If
you do not disinfect the electrodes there is a risk of skin disease.
<NOTE>
If the ECG is interfered by electrostatic discharge, the LCM may show "analysis failed" as follow:
