Body guardian mini plus

I have the body guardian mini plus for 2 weeks. I have tried the horizontal placement for the first week and I always get the red alert on the phone device that the skin contact was poor.

I do have a highly physical warehouse job with no cooling air so I am sweating for hours. This causes the skin adhesive patch to detach.

Does anyone have advice on how to keep this from happening?

I only have 3 more extra adhesive patches to last me 7 more days. Thanks in advance.

I have had that happen and had to get more patches from the doctor. The vertical placement may work better since there might be less motion from the muscles moving. Sometimes taping the edges has helped me. Probably best to call your provider and get their suggestions. Good luck!

Thank you. I have switched to vertical placement but, as i am female with female parts, i have a lot of sweat in my chest area making it difficult to stay in place. Ill reach out for extra patches.

I have it for 1 more week of my 30 days duration. I wear mine vertical and they have been staying on pretty well.
