• You may be asked to change into a hospital gown.
Hygiene:
• Shower before the test to remove any body oils or lotions.
• Do not apply lotion, cream, or oil on your skin on the day of the test, as it can interfere with electrode contact.

• Continue taking your regular medications, unless instructed otherwise by your doctor.
• Inform the doctor if you’re on blood thinners (like warfarin or aspirin) or have a bleeding disorder.
Food & Drink:
• No fasting needed. Eat as you normally would unless otherwise advised.
