    Abstract: The system and method for predicting and measuring a subject's analgesic state and analgesic adequacy. Biopotential signals are obtained from a subject through electrodes. A processor will compute a measure that is representative of the subject's sedative state and/or muscle activity. A metric representative of such measures is then determined. In the case where a measure is taken of both the subjects' sedative state and muscle activity the two measures are combined into an index representative of the subject's analgesic state and analgesic adequacy.

    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: The present invention is a system and method that produces features and indices that indicate the presence or absence of a disease or condition, or of the progression of a disease or condition. The system and method of the present invention also produce features and indices that predict responsiveness to medication from a premedication baseline. The system and method of the present invention further incorporates a testing methodology to improve the performance characteristics of the features or indices. To obtain such features and indices, time domain, power spectrum, bispectrum and higher order spectrum values are derived from biopotential signals taken from the subject being tested.

    Abstract: Disclosed is an electrode array (i.e., "sensor") and a method for separating near and far-field signals. In one embodiment a horizontal array is used, and in an alternate embodiment a vertical array is used. The electrode array consists of two well-separated pairs of closely spaced electrodes (and a separate ground element). In a typical application of collecting a channel of EEG, "sensing" electrodes are placed in standard locations (e.g., R and Ctr) with a ground electrode placed elsewhere on the head. The voltage measured between the well-separated sensing electrodes is the far-field dominant (i.e., EEG-dominant) channel. Additional electrodes are placed near each of the two sensing electrodes. (The additional electrodes are immediately lateral to the existing electrodes in the horizontal array, and are immediately above the existing electrodes in the vertical array.) The voltages measured between the pairs of closely spaced electrodes are near-field dominant (i.e., EMG/EOGdominant) channels. The EEG, EMG and EOG signals can be enhanced by uncoupling them by combining information from all channels. The sensor is connected to a monitor via a patient interface cable (PIC). The sensor contains additional circuitry at the connection site that is used by the monitor to identify the presence and type of sensor, and to configure the monitor to invoke the appropriate software that will apply the method of the current invention to collect and uncouple the EEG, EMG and EOG.

    Abstract: A PTT monitoring system for measuring arousal and responses to stress or pain during sedation or anesthesia. includes ECG electrodes and a PPG probe connected to a computer via signal conditioning and digitizing hardware. Lead I is typically used as the ECG lead while the PPG probe is typically placed on a finger. The ECG and PPG waveforms are continuously analyzed to update and display a current estimate of the subject's PPT from heart to hand. For each cardiac cycle, fiducial points are identified to indicate the pulse onset time (via QRS detection in the ECG) and pulse arrival time (via the point of steepest ascent in the PPG). The onset and arrival times for each cardiac cycle are paired, and the time difference is the interval estimate for that beat. An artifact post-processor (e.g., trim-mean filtering) excludes unlikely intervals from entering the averaged, current estimate of PTT. Finally, the current PTT estimate is displayed numerically and the trend of PTT is updated every second. Clinicians may interpret the instantaneous PTT value directly or in context of its recent trend. If there is a rapid decrease in PTT much less than the predetermined baseline value when the patient should be unconscious and free of stress and pain, then supplemental analgesics are administered to bring PTT greater than or equal to such baseline value.

    Abstract: The disclosed filter removes cardiac artifacts from signals representative of a patient's cerebral activity. The filter preferably replaces portions of the signal including artifacts with temporally adjacent artifact free portions.
