The following section has been added:
Attaching the electrode belt to the patient
(pediatric patients)
Infant
1 Place the electrode belt with the patient cable
connected at the height of the 4th to 6th
intercostal space (medioclavicular line) around
the chest of the patient.
For infants, place the electrode belt as cranially as
possible directly under the armpits. Ensure that no
skin is trapped between the electrode belt and the
patient cable or under the armpits.
The electrode belt in sizes 4XS and 3XS has cut-
outs for the armpits. The alignment of the
electrodes is asymmetrical. When applying the
electrode belt, ensure that the cut-outs are
positioned under the armpits and that the
electrodes are cranially aligned.
Supplement PulmoVista 500
Pediatric patient
Ensure that the left-right orientation of the electrode
belt is correctly maintained. The red patient cable
port must be to the patient's left and the green
patient cable port to the patient's right.
Example for pediatric patients:
2 Ensure that the midposition marker (D) in the
center of the electrode belt is located over the
spine of the patient.
3 Ensure that the electrode belt is positioned in
such a way that electrodes 1 and 16 are the
same distance from the sternum.
Wherever possible attach the electrodes with
an equal distance to each other. Irregular
electrode distances affect the quality of the EIT
data.
