PRECAUTION - The patient position or movement and the BcSs-PICNIW-1000 and BcSs-PICNIW-2000 sensors is known to affect the signal being recorded. As a result, if multiple recording sessions are obtained on the same patient, consistent positioning of the patient and device will lead to more comparable recordings. |
