The Natus BrainWatch system is a reliable, mobile, and easy-to-use EEG device intended to record, store, and visually present EEG signals to assist trained medical staff in making neurological diagnoses in patients. The system includes a touchscreen tablet as its primary interface. The Natus BrainWatch Headband is a single-use disposable headpiece with an integrated array of 10 passive electrodes that are applied to the patient's head to record EEG signals when connected to an amplifier. The Natus BrainWatch System consists of the following components: Tablet, IV Pole Handle, Amplifier, Headband(s), Gel Pods and a Mobile Application: - Touchscreen Tablet with charger - Single-Use disposable elastic fabric headband with 10 electrodes (available in sizes Small, Medium, and Large) containing: - Hydroflex patch with 2 built-in electrodes - 8 electrodes attached to gel pods used to improve impedance levels labeled L1-L4, R1-R4 - Wireless amplifier that attaches to the headband and connects to the tablet via Bluetooth - IV pole handle that holds the tablet for a hands-free experience - Gels pods attach to the electrodes to improve impedance levels The Natus BrainWatch System is a portable 10-channel EEG monitoring system. 10 patient electrodes are used to record the 10 channels. Channels 1-5 should be used for the patient's left hemisphere, with channel 1 at the front of the patient's head and channel 5 at the back. Channels 6-10 should be used for the patient's right hemisphere, with channel 6 at the front of the patient's head and channel 10 at the back. EEG recording files are transferred wirelessly to a computer from the Natus BrainWatch Tablet using a Wi-Fi connection. The EEG sessions from Natus BrainWatch are stored using a cloudbased solution which allows the end user to view studies at a later date. Recorded sessions can be reviewed remotely on a computer using the Neuroworks EEG software. The device is a portable, 10-channel EEG monitoring system. The device connects to a headband consisting of 10 patient electrodes which are used to form the 10 channels and may be used with any scalp EEG electrodes. The system acquires the EEG signals of a patient and presents the EEG signals in visual formats in real time. The EEG recordings are displayed on a computer or tablet using an EEG viewer software. The visual signals assist trained medical staff to make neurological diagnoses. It does not provide any diagnostic conclusion about the subject's condition and does not provide any automated alerts of an adverse clinical event. Micro-USB cable is used to connect the Natus BrainWatch System to power adapter for charging. Bluetooth is used to connect amplifier with tablet to transfer EEG recording files. When the Natus BrainWatch System is connected to a power adapter of a computer, all EEG acquisition functions are automatically disabled.

The ALGO Pro Newborn Hearing Screener is a mobile, noninvasive instrument used to screen infants for hearing loss. The screener uses Automated Auditory Brainstem Response (AABR®) for automated analysis of Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR) signals recorded from the patient. The screener is intended for babies between the ages of 34 weeks (gestation age) and 6 months. Babies should be well enough to be ready for discharge from the hospital, and should be asleep or in a quiet state at the time of screener is simple to operate. It does not require special technical skills or interpretation of results. Basic training with the equipment is sufficient to learn how to screen infants who are in good health and about to be discharged from the hospital. A typical screening process can be completed in 15 minutes or less. Sites appropriate for screening include the well-baby nursery, NICU, mother's bedside, audiology suite, outpatient clinic, or doctor's office.

The ALGO® Pro is a fully automated hearing screening device used to screen infants for hearing loss. It provides consistent, objective pass/refer results. The ALGO Pro device utilizes Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR) as the hearing screening technology, which allows the screening of the entire hearing pathway from outer ear to the brainstem. The ABR signal is evoked by a series of acoustic broadband transient stimulus (clicks) presented to a subject's ears using acoustic transducers and recorded by sensors placed on the skin of the patient. The ALGO Pro generates each click stimulus and presents to the patient's ear using acoustic transducers attached to disposable acoustic earphones. The click stimulus elicits a sequence of distinguishable electrophysiological signals produced as a result of signal transmission and neural responses within the auditory nerve and brainstem of the infant. Disposable sensors applied to the infant's skin pick up this evoked response, and the signal is transmitted to the screener via the patient electrode leads. The device employs advanced signal processing technology such as amplification, digital filtering, artifact rejection, noise monitoring and noise-weighted averaging, to separate the ABR from background noise and from other brain activity. The ALGO Pro uses a statistical algorithm based on binomial statistics to determine if there is a response to the stimulus that matches to the ABR template of a normal hearing newborn. If a response is detected that is consistent with the ABR template derived from normal hearing infants (automated auditory brainstem response technology, AABR), the device provides an automated 'Pass' result. A 'Refer' result is automatically generated if the device cannot detect an ABR response with sufficient statistical confidence or one that is consistent with the template.
