A method for the automatic detection of epileptic and atypical epilepsy-like outbreaks in the EEG and for the triggering of a trigger in real time.

摘要

The invention relates to a method for analyzing an EEG signal. The EEG (X) is filtered with two filters (1, 2) (low pass filter and high pass filter). After a rectification-equivalent function (3), the signal can be smoothed with an additional low-pass filter (4). Subsequently, the signal is amplified (5) and optionally added an adjustable offset (A). Either a manual threshold (D) or an automatically calculated threshold (C, 6) is applied to the threshold detection (7). This triggers a trigger signal (Y) when an amplitude threshold is exceeded.
