Abstract:
A system for formation and testing of a template for the detection of epileptiform activity from a patient's brain comprising:a computer workstation having processor means, disk storage means and display means for storing, processing and display of a multiplicity of EEG signals; said processor means including: means for marking an initiation and termination of electrographic seizures within said multiplicity of displayed EEG signals; means for extracting epileptiform activity segments from at least one EEG signal, each of said epileptiform activity segments including a marked initiation of each of said electrographic seizures; means for simultaneously displaying a seizure data set having a multiplicity of said epileptiform activity segments on said display means; means for detecting epileptiform activity having at least one programmable epileptiform activity detection parameter; and, means for creation and modification of a template for epileptiform activity detection, said template including patient specific data parameters.
