EEG net with transmission capabilities

摘要

An electroencephalography system is provided. The electroencephalography system includes a support structure that covers at least predetermined areas on a patient's head, a plurality of electrodes mounted on the support structure so that, the electrodes are distributed around the patient's head and measure usable electrical signals that are representative of electrical activity or activity in a patient's head, a plurality of transmitting wires incorporated into the support structure, a multi-pin connector having an output and an input, each of the plurality of transmitting wires directly connected between a respective one of each of the plurality of electrodes and a corresponding pin of the multi-pin connector so that, electrical signals are sent to the output of the connector and a first transmitter that is capable of being operatively coupled to the output of the connector.

1. An electroencephalography system comprising:
a support structure that is adapted to cover at least predetermined areas on a patient's head when it is mounted on a patient's head; a plurality of electrodes that are mounted on the support structure so that, when the support structure is mounted on a patient's head, the electrodes are distributed around the patient's head and are capable of measuring usable electrical signals that are representative of electrical activity or activity in a patient's head; a plurality of transmitting wires incorporated into the support structure; at least one multi-pin connector having an output and an input, with the plurality of transmitting wires hard-wired into the multi-pin connector and where each of the plurality of transmitting wires is directly connected between a respective one of each of the plurality of electrodes and a corresponding pin of the input of the multi-pin connector so that, when the headpiece is mounted on a patient's head and when the electrodes are detachably coupled to the predetermined portions of a patient's head, electrical signals that are representative of electrical brain activity of the patient are sent to the output of the connector; and a first transmitter that is capable of being operatively coupled to the output of the connector.
