  • Sensor connector apparatus for use in electroencephalographic spectrum analyzer, provided with conductive connection electrodes connected to sensor electrodes
    Patent number: 11617540
    Abstract: A sensor connector apparatus is disclosed to connected between an electroencephalographic spectrum analyzer and a sensor for use in the electroencephalographic spectrum analyzer. The sensor connector apparatus includes sensor connectors. Each of the sensor connectors includes: a connector to be connected to the electroencephalographic spectrum analyzer; a connector lead where the connector is connected to one end of the connector lead; and a conductive connector electrode that is connected to another end of the connector lead, and is connected to a sensor electrode of the sensor. The electroencephalographic spectrum analyzer is a bispectral index (BIS) processor, the sensor is a BIS Quatro sensor to be connected to the BIS processor, and the connector is connected to a sensor electrode of the BIS Quatro sensor.
