6.2 Taking the ECG measurement
There are three different methods of taking the measurement. Start with measurement method A,
"right index finger–chest". If this method does not deliver measurements, or delivers only unstable
measurements ("EE" is frequently displayed), switch to method B "left index finger–chest" and, if
necessary, to method C "left hand–right hand".
The most suitable method/procedure depends on the heart configuration (shape of the heart) of
each individual user. If it is not possible to take stable measurements using a given measurement
method, this could have a harmless cause such as the shape of the heart. However, the cause may
also be an illness or disease.
Measurement method C offers maximum comfort, but offers a much lower measurement sta-
bility than methods A or B.
