Routine EEG Evaluation
The precision of greater sampling density is a major factor leading to the adoption of dEEG in routine EEG evaluations in hospitals and clinics. However, for many EEG labs it is equally important that the Geodesic Sensor Net is fast and easy to use.
Patient AcceptanceFor children and difficult patients, routine EEG with the Geodesic Sensor Net is now easy, even with 128 or 256 channels. This has proven true even for patients who refused the EEG exam with conventional methods that required scraping the skin, tight elastic caps, or noxious adhesives. At the Center for Neurological and Neurodevelopmental Health in Vorhees, New Jersey, Dr. Mark Mintz and his associates have implemented dEEG assessment in their routine EEG evaluation of children, including those who are autistic or developmentally delayed who have had traumatic experiences with conventional EEG previously. Visit The Center for Neurological and Neurodevelopmental Health. Read an interview with Mark Mintz on the Geodesic EEG System in practice. In this interview, Dr. Mintz discusses the advantages of integrating an advanced dEEG evaluation into outpatient clinical practice.
EEG Laboratory EconomicsEven for cooperative patients, the speed of applying and removing the Geodesic Sensor Net means that the EEG lab can often run six or eight patients with a single machine per day, rather than three or four.
For technologists, physicians, and administrators, the improvements in speed and usability with the GeoMedica system translate directly to cost savings. |
