Patent ID: 10039465

Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for automatically evaluating an absence EEG, wherein EEG curves are recorded by an evaluating device and are evaluated by means of a computer of the evaluating device, wherein in the evaluation at least the current stage of the absent state is determined from the EEG curves by means of the computer on the basis of a stage division of the absence EEG, wherein stages of the depth of the absent state are distinguished in the stage division, and wherein the current stage is output, wherein a certain scheme of the stage division is selected by the computer from a plurality of selectable schemes of stage divisions, which differ in the number of distinguishable stages of the absent state, and is used for the automatic performance of the stage division in order to determine the current stage. The invention further relates to a computer program for performing such a method and to an evaluating device for evaluating an absence EEG.
