Here’s a new device touted to be useful for monitoring the depth of anesthesia and sedation. NeuroWave out of Cleveland Heights, Ohio released their new NeuroSENSE Monitor (NS-701), a smaller and lighter version of the last model. This bilateral brain monitor, designed with independent indices for each brain hemisphere, now comes with a 10.4″ monitor screen, as well as advanced EEG algorithms that crunch the company’s proprietary depth of anesthesia indexes.
Additionally, according to the company, the new monitor “integrates a new optimized algorithm for the detection of cortical suppression in noisy recordings and for the detection of near-suppression periods during spindle activity.”
More features from the product page:
Delay-free tracking of patient state via low-noise WAVCNS1 bilateral indexes
WAVCNS (Wavelet Anesthetic Value for Central Nervous System) indexes provide instantaneous tracking of the patient state
Automatic trending facilitates immediate response without increasing the index noiseTrue bilateral monitoring with great inter-hemispheric reproducibility
Increased reliability due to redundancy (asymmetry due to underlying pathologies or unrecognized artifacts can be easily detected)
Superior prediction of loss of consciousness
Linear response to increasing EEG suppression
Robust hardware with superior signal qualityAdvanced automated artifact detection and removal
Electro-surgical interference detection and filtering
Cardiac defibrillation proof
Continuous measurement of electrode-skin contactsCompliant with the guidelines of International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology (IFCN) and American Clinical Neurophysiology Society (ACNS)
High-resolution clinical EEG tracings suitable for interpretation by EEG experts
Availability of raw EEG data
Transparent, published algorithm
