Welcome to the EEG Edition of The Neuroscience Monitor!
Here you will find a list upcoming events, recommended publications and books, and an update on our new educational product designed specifically for users of EEG. While we have your attention, we would also like to invite you to our new website, www.cnstechnology.com!
 
Events
65th Annual American Epilepsy Society Meeting      
CNS Technology will be at the premier meeting for epilepsy and seizure disorders on December 3 - 5 in Baltimore, MD. With researchers and clinicians exploring continuous EEG and the benefits of monitoring critical care patients, we are anxious to join an important conversation about the place of EEG in the ICU. We look forward to sharing our knowledge of the unique needs of intensive care for EEG monitoring.

EEG Electrode Technology from Moberg Multimedia
Available for $98 at the Annual AES Meeting and at www.mobergmultimedia.com

A new program joins the family of Brain Monitoring Interactive Education Suite courses offered by Moberg Multimedia. EEG Electrode Technology is designed for those who would benefit from a basic knowledge of EEG and EEG electrode technology. This course gives a basic overview of EEG, common EEG montages, how to measure and mark a patient's head for electrodes, the types and applications of electrodes, and a process for checking for reliable EEG signals.

After this course, you will be able to:
 
  • Discuss the team approach to neuromonitoring
  • Describe the International 10-20 System
  • Identify 21 standard electrode positions
  • Identify types of electrodes
  • Recognize bipolar and referential montages
  • Recognize procedures for applying electrodes and troubleshooting signals
