Abstract
An automated EP analysis apparatus for monitoring, detecting and identifying changes (adverse or recovering) to a physiological system generating the analyzed EPs, wherein the apparatus is adapted to characterize and classify EPs and create alerts of changes (adverse or recovering) to the physiological systems generating the EPs if the acquired EP waveforms change significantly in latency, amplitude or morphology.
Claims13
An automated EP analysis apparatus for automatic baseline acquisition and subsequent monitoring, detecting and identifying changes (adverse or recovering) to a physiological system generating EP waveforms, wherein the apparatus is adapted to:
- automatically acquire and establish the baseline using real-time EP waveforms;
- characterize and classify the EP waveforms and create alerts of the changes (adverse or recovering) to the physiological system generating the EP waveforms if the acquired EP waveforms change significantly in latency, amplitude or morphology relative to the baseline;
- and
- update the baseline using EP waveforms that are classified as good.
