101cm long, which will consistency overestimate measurements by 1% Differentiate between the different properties of physiological instruments (for example, linearity, stability, frequency response, etc. ) Place ecg apparatus as far away form electrical equipment emitting x-rays or short wave radiation. Describe the purpose of obtaining a subject"s informed consent: legal and ethical requirement for all procedures involving human subjects, and grows from a moral, ethical and legal concern for the welfare of the individual. The earth act as a sink allowing current to flow from an electrically charged instrument when connected to the ground (ground wire). In this state objects are electrically neutral or grounded. In order to ground the system, a connection between the chassis, and ground must be established, the resulting current flow is referred to as the leakage current. Grounding is achieved through the use of a 3 wire plug, and outlet system.
