Test Preparation
To get accurate results and stay comfortable during the procedure, follow these steps:
Clothing:
• Wear loose-fitting clothing such as a short-sleeved shirt and shorts.
• You may be asked to change into a hospital gown to allow full access to your arms and legs.
Skin Care:
• Take a shower or bath before your appointment to ensure your skin is clean.
• Do not apply any lotions, creams, or oils to your arms or legs on the day of the test, as these can affect electrode contact.

• Inform your doctor/technician if you:
o Take blood thinners (e.g., aspirin, warfarin)
o Have a bleeding disorder
o Have a pacemaker or implanted device
