Philips Electroencephalography (EEG) measurement module produces real-time waveforms from two channels. Software algorithms filter typical artifacts from eye movement and pulse, among others.
The EEG module is designed for continuous, real-time monitoring of adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients in anesthesia and intermediate/critical care environments.
The module provides the following measurements:
- Two channels of raw real-time EEG waves
- Compressed spectral array (CSA) for each channel of EEG
- Total power (TP)
- % TP in each frequency band (Delta, Theta, Alpha, Beta)
- Spectral edge frequency
- Mean dominant frequency
- Peak power frequency
- Continuous impedance for each electrode
Compressed Spectral Array – visualizing EEG data
Compressed Spectral Array (CSA) analysis converts raw EEG waveforms to condensed color displays to assist the clinician in discerning patterns in long-term recordings.
Sophisticated signal filtering and control
EEG signals are susceptible to interference from a wide variety of sources, from a patient’s eye movement to concurrent ECG signals. Our software filters high and low artifacts.
The module continuously measures and displays electrode-to-skin impedance on each electrode and can alert the clinician to check or change electrodes. Clinicians can configure up to five montages, or lead placements, based on the International 10-20 standard, to suit their needs.
Comprehensive documentation
Users can print CSA and EEG data on demand or at scheduled intervals. Each printout includes the last six seconds of real-time waves and corresponding CSAs, all calculated numerics, and current scale and filter settings.
