Tips for a Good Recording Signal

Device interference
Find a place away from other electronics such as Wi-Fi routers or radios.

Where to take a recording
Use a mirror, such as a bathroom mirror, to aid with proper placement of the device on your body. Best placement can vary. The digital stethoscope is sensitive to vibration and hand movement. Apply steady pressure against the body to ensure good contact.
Do not press hard.

Skin preparation
If you are having difficulty getting a good heart health recording, use an alcohol wipe to remove any lotions or body oils from where you are taking the recordings. If possible, trim body hair where you will be taking the recordings.
