Abstract: Embodiments of a shielded sensor headset including a plurality of electrodes are generally described herein. In some embodiments a sensor headset can include electrodes, traces, and connection terminals printed on a first side of a flexible insulating substrate; and a shield plane printed on a second side of the flexible insulating substrate, the shield plane providing protection against interference. In some embodiments a sensor headset can include a first and a second assembly each having a plurality of electrodes, the first and second assemblies being configured to mate such that the electrodes comply with the 10-20 standard for EEG electrode placement. In some embodiments a sensor headset can include a dual-layer foam reservoir disposed above individual electrodes. An inner layer of the dual-layer foam reservoir can be in contact with an electrode, include a conductive gel, and form a cavity for receiving additional gel through a perforation in the electrode.

Abstract: An ambulatory intrinsic brain signal processor circuit is coupled to a plurality of electrodes. The signal processor circuit can include a digital multiplexer circuit coupled to the electrodes to multiplex brain signal data from different electrodes together into a multiplexed data stream. An ambulatory transceiver circuit wirelessly communicates information to and from a remote transceiver. A controller circuit permits a user to control which of the electrodes contribute data, a data resolution, and whether the data includes one or both of neural action or local field potential data. Seizure prediction components and methods are also described.

Abstract: An EEG kit can be thought of as “EEG In a Bag” (“EEG-IAB”). The EEG kit can provide a complete, disposable, fast, and easily-used platform to record EEG to measure brain activity. Other physiological information (e.g., oxygen saturation, ECG or EKG, etc.) or other information (e.g., local electrode motion) can also be recorded, such as in time-concordance with the recorded EEG signals. The recorded EEG and other information can be uplinked to a local or remote user interface. A local or remote neurologist can use the EEG information to render a diagnosis in tens of minutes, wherein such information can currently be unavailable, or can require a number of hours to obtain and diagnose. The EEG kit can be very convenient, and can be used in a hospital emergency department (ED), an intensive care unit (ICU), by a first responder, or can be deployed for emergency or disaster preparedness.

The device further comprises: a coronal portion 12 comprising a plurality of imbedded electrodes; and electrical connectors 22 for electrically connecting the imbedded electrodes in the sagittal portion and the coronal portion to an electroencephalograph.

Abstract: A system and method can have an electroencephalographic (EEG) recording module and a host device. The EEG recording can have a memory module configured to record EEG signals from a patient and a wireless transceiver configured to wirelessly transmit the EEG signals as packets. The host device can have a wireless transceiver configured to wirelessly receive at least some of the packets transmitted by the recording module wireless transceiver and a processor configured to identify one or more missing packets. Upon a completion of transmission of the packets, the host device is configured to wirelessly transmit an identity of missing packets to the recording module wireless transceiver. Upon receiving the identity of the missing packets, the recording module wireless transceiver is configured to wirelessly transmit packets including the EEG signals corresponding to the missing packets to the host device.

Abstract: Bioelectrical activity in a living animal or human subject is monitored by detecting the bioelectrical signals at a number of points digitizing and multiplexing the electrical signals and transmitting the multiplexed stream by digital radio transmission circuitry. The received data stream is then demultiplexed and monitored to allow the activity at the points on the animal subject to be monitored.
