  • Publication number: 20220313142
    Abstract: Systems and methods for evaluating neurologic function of a subject are described. An odorant, auditory and/or somatosensory generator is configured to deliver a sensory stimulation to the subject, a plurality of electrodes are configured to be attached to the subject, and a handheld EEG control unit is configured to control the odorant, auditory and/or somatosensory generator, process the neural signals from the plurality of electrodes and generate an assessment of neurologic function of the subject.

  • Publication number: 20210298661
    Abstract: An apparatus, module, methods and systems for automated, standardized assessment and analysis of a human olfactory system's odor detection ability as an indicator or predictor of cognitive impairment or change in cognitive health, and other health conditions such as diabetes. Notably, the present invention is operable for use across all age groups of humans and provides quantitative detection and analysis of a human olfactory system's detection ability compared to a relevant demographic population.

  • Publication number: 20200253531
    Abstract: Methods, devices and systems for evaluating olfactory function are configured to: electronically estimate a user-specific odorant detection threshold sensitivity threshold using at least one target stimulus odorant delivered to a nose of a user; flowably deliver a plurality of different target stimulus odorants to the nose of the user with defined concentrations of the different target stimulus odorants based, at least in part, on the estimated user-specific odorant detection sensitivity threshold; and evaluate olfactory function of the user based on the user's response to the delivered different target stimulus odorants.
