Adapting Limb Electrode Placement
Captions available
The idea
Because limb electrodes can sit anywhere along the arms and legs, placement can be adapted for a patient with a missing or injured limb.
In practice
Place the electrode on the remaining part of the limb, following the practice's procedure.
Where people slip
Note any non-standard placement on the tracing so the provider can interpret it correctly.
