Oulu, Finland, February 21, 2019 – Bittium exhibits its innovative products and solutions for neuroscience and neurophysiology at 3rd International Brain Stimulation Conference, on February 24-27 in Vancouver, Canada. The event brings together cognitive neuroscientists, neurosurgeons, brain modeling physicists, and companies specialized in brain stimulation to discuss and share information on progress in the field of brain stimulation.
At the event Bittium exhibits Bittium NeurOne™ EEG/ERP system for brain electrical activity measurement and the wireless Bittium BrainStatus™ EEG amplifier, electrode headband and software meant for real-time brain electrical activity monitoring. Also presented are the new waterproof Bittium Faros™ cardiac ECG signal measuring and monitoring devices and Bittium FastFix™ patch electrode for long term ECG measurement.
Bittium NeurOne system is used by many high-ranking research institutes for measuring concurrent EEG with transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS-EEG). Bittium NeurOne real-time DigiOut functionality enables TMS stimulation at the certain moment of EEG wave e.g. based on 10 Hz alpha frequency/phase (alpha rhythm on occipital area or mu rhythm on motor area). Based on the application, terms Brain State dependent stimulation or Closed Loop TMS stimulation are used. Dynamic range of NeurOne Tesla amplifier (±430 mV) makes Tesla-amplifier especially suitable for all EEG measurements during various stimulations.
At the event Bittium also presents the comprehensive solution being developed in collaboration with Cerenion for monitoring the electrical activity of the brain (EEG) of intensive care patients. This is done by combining Bittium BrainStatus™, a wireless EEG-monitoring device designed for monitoring real-time electrical brain activity, with Cerenion’s innovative C-Trend analysis that helps to interpret the brain function of intensive care patients using a simple C-Trend Index, which is easy to follow. The purpose of the solution is to ease and speed up the work of the nursing staff at the intensive care unit.
