PORTABLE DEVICE FOR REAL TIME MONITORING OF EPILEPSY SEIZURES

摘要

The present invention relates to a portable device for real time monitoring the epilepsy seizures. According to the invention, the device comprises a surface electrode (1), an electrical cable (2) made of multi-wire silver for connecting the surface electrode (1) with an amplifier (6) of the cerebral bio-currents, another surface electrode (3) for the neutral, connected by means of another electric cable (4) made of multi-wire silver to the minus connection of the amplifier (6) of the cerebral bio-currents, said amplifier (6) consisting of a specialized integrated circuit of ADS 1298-type which detects, amplifies and selects only the bio-currents emitted by the patient's cerebral neurons with aberrant electrical activity prior to the start of the final phase of the epilepsy seizure, a sound warning piezoelectric device (7) which takes over the electric signal from the outlet of amplifier (6), a Bluetooth module (8) also meant to take over the selected signal, amplified, filtered and generated by the amplifier (6) of aberrant cerebral bio-currents and to transmit it to the mobile phone (9) of the patient, a power supply (10); the so formed assembly is placed in a housing (5) whereon there is a button (11) for adjusting the tone of the sound warning device (7) and another button (12) for verifying the functionality of the device.
