Emergency Brain Monitor with Telemetry

描述（由申请人提供）：拟议的计划旨在为大脑提供我们几十年来一直在为心脏做的事情。我们将设计一个先进的设备，利用21世纪世纪的技术，监测大脑（脑电图）与一个小型轻便的无线，监测。它可以在急诊室，院前环境或医院的任何地方使用，包括OR和ICU。遥测技术可以让病人不受束缚， 在被监视的情况下自由活动局域网和互联网连接使神经科医生能够从世界任何地方读取脑电图。FDA批准的无线EEC设备将升级为新的软件和电极线束，用于范德比尔特和伊利诺伊大学芝加哥的急诊科。这些器械将在艾德和 将开发下一代设备。将特别注意设计特征，以便于在艾德环境中使用。患者测试将确定ED中精神状态改变的患者无惊厥发作的患病率。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The proposed program is meant to provide for the brain what we have been doing for the heart for decades. We will design an advanced device using 21st century technology to monitor the brain (EEG) with a small lightweight wireless, monitor. It can be used in the emergency room, in a prehospital setting, or anywhere in the hospital, including the OR and ICU. The telemetry allows the patient to be untethered and moved about freely while still being monitored. LAN and Internet connections allow a neurologist to be able to read the EEGs from anywhere in the world. FDA approved wireless EEC equipment will be upgraded with new software and electrode harnesses for use in Emergency Departments at Vanderbilt and the University of Illinois, Chicago. The devices will be tested in the ED and a next generation device will be developed. Special attention will be given to design features to allow easy use in the ED environment. The patient testing will be to determine the prevalence of no convulsive seizures of patients with altered mental status in the ED.
