Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for seizure detection. The method for seizure detection may include receiving a plurality of electroencephalography (EEG) signals over a plurality of channels for a subject, preprocessing the plurality of EEG signals by segmenting the plurality of EEG signals for each channel into a plurality of temporal data segments, extracting a plurality of features from each temporal data segment for each channel, and applying a machine learning algorithm to the plurality of features to perform a seizure binary classification for each temporal data segment for each channel. A control policy may be employed to determine a seizure burden on the aggregated seizure binary classifications. When the seizure burden is equal to or exceeds a threshold, a notification may be generated. The notification may be usable by a healthcare practitioner to assess whether the subject may be at risk of having a seizure.

Abstract: An electrode carrier system includes one or more electrode assemblies having an electrode body. One or more tubular members extend from the electrode body and define a lumen terminating in a distal opening. The electrode assemblies carry a reservoir containing a conductive fluid or gel. The reservoir is in fluid communication with the lumens in the tubular members, and the electrode assemblies are typically supported on a backing which may optionally be configured as a headband. Systems are for tracking patient movement may be used in combination with the electrode carrier system.

Abstract: Systems and methods for sonifying electrical signals obtained from a living subject, particularly EEG signals, are disclosed. A time-domain signal representing the activity of an organ is obtained. A voltage of the time-domain signal over a time block is determined. An acoustic signal based on the time-domain signal over the time block is produced. The acoustic signal comprises one or more audibly discernible variations representative of the activity of the organ. If the determined voltage is over a threshold voltage, the time-domain signal is squelched over at least a portion of the time-block as the acoustic signal is produced. The time-domain signal can be squelched by ramping down the signal as an input to produce the acoustic signal. The frequency spectrum of the acoustic signal can also be adjusted as it is produced, such as by flattening the signal and/or attenuating high frequencies along the frequency spectrum of the signal.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods are provided to assess connection quality between the electrodes of a bioelectrical signal measurement and/or electrical stimulation device and the tissue, typically skin, of the subject. A test signal is provided to a first electrode, voltage differences between the first electrode and additional electrodes are determined, an impedance of the first electrode is determined based on the voltages differences, and the determined impedance indicates connection quality. This process is typically repeated for all of the electrodes to determine connection quality. The user or subject can be alerted if the connection quality is poor, and the bioelectrical signal that is recorded can be provided with data points indicating connection quality during the signal recording.

Abstract: Embodiments of this disclosure disclose an imaging system, including an eye interface device, a scanning assembly, a beam source, a free-floating mechanism, and a detection assembly. The beam source generates an electromagnetic radiation beam. The detection assembly generates a signal indicative of an intensity of a portion of the electromagnetic radiation beam reflected from the focal point location. A subsequent focal point of the electromagnetic radiation beam may be adjusted per the measured intensity signal. In some embodiments, an intensity signal below a lower threshold value may suggest a depth increase for a subsequent focal point. An intensity signal above an upper threshold value may suggest a depth decrease for a subsequent focal point. And, an intensity signal between the lower and upper thresholds may suggest a depth be maintained for a subsequent focal point. The focal point may be adjusted after each pulse or after a plurality of pulses.

Abstract: A laser surgery system includes a light source, an eye interface device, a scanning assembly, a confocal detection assembly and preferably a confocal bypass assembly. The light source generates an electromagnetic beam. The scanning assembly scans a focal point of the electromagnetic beam to different locations within the eye. An optical path propagates the electromagnetic beam from a light source to the focal point, and also propagates a portion of the electromagnetic beam reflected from the focal point location back along at least a portion of the optical path. The optical path includes an optical element associated with a confocal detection assembly that diverts a portion of the reflected electromagnetic radiation to a sensor. The sensor generates an intensity signal indicative of intensity the electromagnetic beam reflected from the focal point location. The confocal bypass assembly reversibly diverts the electromagnetic beam along a diversion optical path around the optical element.
