After cleaning, the ECG cables and lead wires should be wiped with water using a clean damp cloth
then dried with a clean dry cloth. The ECG cables and lead wires must be allowed to dry thoroughly
before use.
NOTE: ECG cables and lead wires must never be immersed, soaked in any
fluids, and they should not be cleaned with harsh chemicals such as
acetone or non-diluted bleach.
NOTE: Clean ECG cables carefully to avoid breaking internal wires by excessive
bending, strain, or flexing.
NOTE: Do not autoclave, radiation or steam sterilize ECG cables or lead wires.
NOTE: Extended exposure to Ethylene Oxide gas may shorten life of the ECG
cables and lead wires, leading to poor signal quality.
