Patient hookup checklist

A quick run-through before lights out.

Educational reference, not a diagnostic tool. A scored event, an elevated index and a clinical diagnosis are different things. Follow your facility’s scoring manual, notification policies and clinical protocols.

Verify identity and orders.
Apply EEG, EOG, chin, EKG, leg, effort belts, airflow, oximetry.
Run biocalibrations.
Document impedances.
