Answer:

wipe the area that came into contact with the electrodes with an alcohol pad

Explanation:

According to my research on the procedure for iontophoresis, I can say that based on the information provided within the question the OTR should wipe the area that came into contact with the electrodes with an alcohol pad. This is because the alcohol pad kills any bacteria that is lingering on the skin and therefore prevents infections from occurring. Especially since the iontophoresis procedure can increase skin permeability which makes it easier for infections to arise.
