Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an array of electrodes allowing a user to easily adjust to the correct size of the patient's head. SOLUTION: The electrode array 10 includes only three electrodes 12a, 12b, 12c for monitoring an electrophysiological signal, and includes a body 14, a satellite body 15, and a flexible body with a flexible connector for connecting the body 14 and the satellite body 15. Two electrodes 12a, 12b out of the three electrodes are disposed on the body and the electrode 12c of the rest is disposed on the satellite body 15. A conductor 16 is wired on the flexible body to carry signals from the electrodes. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an array of electrodes allowing a user to easily adjust to the correct size of the patient's head. SOLUTION: This array is self-adhesive, pre-gelled and disposable. The array fits easily over the temple and forehead areas where EEG signals can be acquired by specially designed monitors for purposes of monitoring a number of bodily phenomena, including but not limited to, depth of anesthesia, ischemia, and burst suppression. The array is connected to the monitor via a tab connector that is integral to the device. The tab connector is insertable into a reusable connector that is part of a monitoring system.

A sensor system which includes a biopotential signal monitor, a smart sensor and the accompanying hardware and software interface which authenticates the source and validity of the smart sensor and also verifies that the smart sensor meets various criteria for use.
Abstract:
The invention provides a method of estimating cerebral sources of electrical activity from a small subset of EEG channels utilizing existing methods to provide a 3dimensional, discrete, distributed, linear solution to the inverse problem using inputs consisting of a small number of EEG channels (e.g., 4 channels) augmented with synthetic EEG data for the other channels. The resultant image of cerebral electrical activity in the region of the EEG channels from which data is recorded is of comparable spatial resolution in the corresponding region to images of cerebral electrical activity obtained using a complete set of EEG channels (e.g., using 24 channels).

Abstract:
An electrophysiological electrode includes multiple layers of materials to isolate liquid electrolytic gels from the conductive inks on the flexible circuit of the electrode substrate. Such an electrode has a much longer shelf life under normal storage conditions than other electrodes of such construction with high salt content liquid electrolytic gel, and is able to maintain acceptable impedance upon its eventual use.
