If it’s a 24 hour monitor, it’s basically a little recording box with a belt clip or neck cord, (about cell phone size) and I think it’s 6 leads that self-adhesive on. Use a perm marker or waterproof eyeliner and put a little dot on the skin by where the stickies are, so when one comes off (and they will) you can just stick it back on. Don’t panic if a lead comes off, they’ll still be able to get a reading. Go to the doc to get the device; go back the next day to turn in the device. Doc will call in a day or two with results. No news is good news. Hugs to your mom!
Thank you for this great advice. I wonder how long at one sitting the monitors need to stop Gay on because she is a stubborn girl and she may forget and rip them off. We will see.
I really appreciate this - I had no idea what they were, but I guess lots of distraction (Sandra bullock movies etc) might help them get along enough reading.
