Intended Use
Intended to record and display EEG and EP (evoked potential) data in the clinic and hospital. It is intended to aid in the diagnosis and monitoring of potential disorders of the central and peripheral nervous system.
Device Story
Cognitrace is an EEG/ERP data acquisition and analysis system used in clinics and hospitals by healthcare professionals. It captures electrical signals from the nervous system via an EEG/ERP amplifier and stimulation unit. The system supports various measurements, including EEG, VEP, AEP, P300, and CNV. Data is processed by the eemagine EEG software, which performs signal analysis, artifact detection, dipole fitting, and spike detection. The system provides clinicians with visual displays, analysis reports, and wizards to assist in diagnosing and monitoring neurological disorders. By integrating data acquisition and advanced analysis tools, the device facilitates the assessment of central and peripheral nervous system function.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. Hardware and software components were evaluated for safety, EMC compliance, and functional performance compared to the predicate device.
Technological Characteristics
System includes EEG/ERP amplifier, stimulation unit, and eemagine EEG software. Supports up to 128 channels. Digital FIR low-pass filtering (cutoff 0.27 * sample frequency); sampling frequencies: 256, 512, 1024, 2048 Hz. Noise levels: < 1.0 µVrms (EEG/BIP), < 20 µVrms (AUX). Connectivity includes DICOM import. Software features include montage editor, signal processing, and analysis tools.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients in clinical or hospital settings requiring EEG and EP data recording/display to aid in the diagnosis and monitoring of central and peripheral nervous system disorders.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An electroencephalograph is a device used to measure and record the electrical activity of the patient's brain obtained by placing two or more electrodes on the head.
