Test Preparation
To ensure a smooth and accurate test, follow these guidelines:
Clothing:
• Wear a short-sleeved shirt or loose-fitting top that allows easy access to your arm.
• You might be asked to wear a gown for the test.
Skin Care:
• Bathe or shower before your test for clean skin.
• Do not apply any creams, lotions, or oils on your arm or hand on the day of the test—this can interfere with the electrodes.
Medications:
• Continue your usual medications unless your doctor advises otherwise.
• Let your doctor or technician know if you:
o Are on blood thinners
o Have a bleeding disorder
o Have any implanted devices (e.g., pacemaker).
Food & Drink:
• No fasting is needed. Eat and drink as usual.
