SYSTEM FOR DETECTING WHITE MATTER NEURAL INJURY AND PREDICTING NEUROLOGICAL OUTCOME PARTICULARLY FOR PRETERM INFANTS |
摘要 |
<p>A method for detecting white matter neural injury and predicting neurological outcome for a patient, comprises acquiring EEG signal(s) from the surface of the head of the patient, and analyzing the frequency distribution or content of the signal(s) to produce output information indicative of cerebral white matter injury for the patient. Loss or reduction of activity in the upper portion or spectral edge of the EEG frequency domain particularly in the immature brain is predictive of neural dysfunction. A system for detecting white matter neural injury and predicting neurological outcome for a patient is also described.</p> |
