Displaced respiratory belts would only impact: respiratory channels. A disconnected end-tidal cable (EtCO2) would only impact: the canography (non-invasive measurement of CO2) for channel. A contaminated M1 electrode would impact any channel that M1 is paired with, typically F4, C4 and O2 if using montage recommended by AASM. The entire systems ability to record clean data depends on: the systems reference electrode remaining solidly connected with a low impedance value....
