The long-term monitoring control room is the primary data hub of AdventHealth Tampa's Epilepsy Center. Sophisticated software and equipment allow for the display, recording and secure storage of high-definition video, audio and EEG data. A bank of monitors displays information for up to 24 patients at the same time. This not only includes patients in the epilepsy monitoring unit and intensive care unit, but patients in other areas in the hospital can also be monitored with specialized mobile equipment placed at the bedside.
Telemedicine technology also allows us to provide long-term monitoring services for patients at other AdventHealth hospitals.
The long-term monitoring control room is staffed 24 hours a day by specially trained neurodiagnostic technicians. Information gathered from long-term monitoring allows our team to accurately diagnose seizure problems and design individualized treatment plans for our patients.
