Embodiment Construction

[0028] figure 1 The head 6 of an individual equipped with the system 1 for monitoring EEG signals is shown. The individual being monitored carries an implantable EEG sensor 2 and a processing unit 4 . Both units 2, 4 are adapted to communicate wirelessly through the skin of the individual. The implanted EEG sensor 2 contains electrodes 5 . The sensor will have at least two electrodes, which can act as separate electrodes along such as figure 1 The same wire 5 arrangement shown in . One wire containing all electrodes associated with each conductor can facilitate the implantation process. The EEG sensor is equipped with an electronics module 7 .

[0029] The processing unit 4 is arranged at the ear of the individual whose EEG signal is being monitored. Preferably, the processing unit 4 is arranged in a housing behind the ear, as a behind-the-ear hearing aid. This also facilitates positioning as close as possible to the implanted components, which is very important for wir...

Abstract

A system for remote surveillance of an EEG signal of a person susceptible of having a hypoglycemic seizure comprises an EEG sensor part with electrodes for measuring one or more EEG signals from the person, and a processing unit adapted to be arranged at the ear of said person. EEG signal processing means is adapted for analyzing the EEG signal, for identifying or predicting a hypoglycemic seizure in the person. The system comprises a first connection between the EEG sensor part and the processing unit, adapted for transmitting an EEG signal from the implantable EEG sensor to the processing unit. The system comprises an external part adapted to receive wirelessly an alarm from the processing part, where the external part is adapted to forward an alarm to a care-giver. The invention further provides a method of EEG surveillance.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a system for providing an alert of an individual's impending seizure, wherein the system is based on monitoring the individual's electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. More specifically, the present invention relates to methods for remotely monitoring EEG signals of individuals susceptible to hypoglycemic episodes, wherein the system comprises an EEG sensor having electrodes for measuring one or more EEG signals from the individual. The system further comprises a processing unit having EEG signal processing means for analyzing EEG signals, said signal processing means being adapted to identify or predict hypoglycemic episodes in said individual based on the EEG signals, said processing means comprising The analyzed EEG signal determines when an alert or information should be provided. Background technique [0002] For diabetics, accurate control of blood sugar concentration is very important. Blood sugar levels should no...
