Definitions

  • ABSTRACT An EEG head harness for rapidly and automatically locating a plurality of EEG electrodes on the head of a patient in which the electrodes are removable and are spring biased toward the head of the patient and in which'the electrode supporting frame is longitudinally separable.
  • the present invention relates to an electroencephalogram (EEG) head harness and more specifically to an EEG head harness which permits patient mobility v while automatically locating the electrodes on the aperally utilize either surface or needle electrodes which must be individually and carefully placed on the head of the patient by a skilled physician or highly trained.
  • EEG electroencephalogram
  • vIt is another object of the present invention to provide a novel EEG electrode harness which may be rapidly and easily applied to patients of varying head sizes and configurations.
  • Yet a further object of the present invention is to provide a novel EEG head harness in which the electrodes are replaceable and are automatically biased into electrical contact with the head of the patient.
  • Yet still another object of the present invention is to provide a novel EEG head harness which is longitudinally separable to permit easy and rapid placement thereon on the head of a patient.
  • FIG. 1 is a pictorial representation of one embodiment of the head harness of the present invention
  • FIG. 2 is a pictorial representation of a portion of the head harness of FIG. 1 from the rear thereof;
  • FIG. 3 is a pictorial representation of the head harness of FIG. 1 in place on a patients head;
  • FIG. 4 is a pictorial representation of a portion of a second embodiment of the head harness of the present invention from the rear thereof.
  • a suitable conventional connector 10 adapted to feed the sensed signals to any suitable device for recording, display and/or analyzing is connected by way of the individual cables of a wiring harness 12 to the plurality of suitable conventional electrodes 14 spaced around the periphery of the frame 16.
  • the frame 16 may be made of plastic, wood, or any other suitable non-conducting material and it is adapted to conform generally to the shape of a human head.
  • the frame 16 may be split longitudinally and the two halves thereof connected by way of a hinge 18 at the rear thereof.
  • the hinge 18 may be secured to the two halves of the frame 16 by suitable conventional fasteners such as threaded screws 20.
  • a strap 22 may be secured to one side of the frame 16 by any suitable conventional fasteners 24 and may be provided with a number of apertures 26 adapted to engage a projection forwardly extending from the other side of the frame 16.
  • the frame 16 may be made to fit securely on heads varying substantially in circumference.
  • the frame 16 may be provided with a plurality of resilient pads 30 on the radially inward surface 32 thereof. While four pads are illustrated, it is to be understood that any number may be utilized as desired.
  • the electrodes 14 may be any suitable conventional type and may for example be. silver-silver chloride as available from the National Wire and Cable Corporation of 136 San Fernando Road, Los Angeles, California.
  • the electrodes may be attached to the individual cables in the cable harness 12 by way of any suitable conventional connector such as a telephone jack or banana plug type connector 34 and a highly conductive wire 36.
  • the wire 36 may be looped to provide a spring bias to urge the electrode 14 into contact with the head of the individual whose EEG signals are being evaluated.
  • the electrode 14 need not be in direct contact with the head if one of the commercially available highly conductive pastes is utilized. Thus the head need not be shaved and sufficient electrical contact can be achieved through the paste.
  • the wires 36 may be made of various lengths to permit contact with a specific region of the head and wires of various lengths may be substituted if necessary or desirable for individuals with different head configurations. Likewise, the number of electrodes may be varied depending on the number of signals desired.
  • the hinge 18 and strap 22 of the FIG. 1 embodiment may be replaced by a single spring member 38 which urges the two portions of the frame 16 into a closed position.
  • the bias provided by the spring member 38 is desirably such that the two portions of the frame 16 may be easily spread apart sufficiently to permit egress of the patients head into the central area encircled by the frame 16.
  • the bias of the spring member 38 must, however, be sufficient for retention of the frame on the head of the patient.
  • resilient pads 30 may be utilized for comfort.
  • the head harness of the present invention may be utilized with any shaped head with comfort.
  • the number of signals and the area of the brain from which they are derived may readily be selected with a minimum of setup time. It is to be understood, however, that the invention may be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics thereof.
  • An EEG head harness comprising:
  • a generally oval frame of electrically non-conducting material adapted to laterally encompass the head of a patient
  • said frame being longitudinally separable to facilitate the placing thereof on the head of the patient and including means for selectively limiting the longitudinal separation of said frame;
  • resilient means carried by said frame radially inward thereof adapted to pressurally engage the head of for limiting the longitudinal separation of said frame includes a flexible strap secured at one end to one longitudinal portion of said frame and means carried by the other longitudinal portion of said frame adapted to selectively engage said strap intermediate the length thereof.
  • said longitudinally separable frame includes right and left frame members; and,
  • said means for selectively limiting the longitudinal separation of said frame includes spring means secured to said right and left frame members for biasing said frame members to a closed position.
  • An EEG head harness comprising:
  • a frame adapted to laterally encircle a human head
  • an electrically conductive wire connecting each of said electrodes to one of said plurality of plugs whereby said electrodes may be connected to a selected lead in said plural lead connector by the insertion of the plug associated with that electrode into the one of said plurality of receptacles to which the selected lead is connected, said electrically conductive wire biasing the one of said electrodes associated therewith into position to contact the head encircled by said frame at a point displaced from the plane of the frame.
  • the head harness of claim 5 wherein the lengths of at least two of said wires differ significantly in length plural conductor means carried by said frame for whereby different regions of the head may be electrielectrically connecting each of said highly conductive spring means individually to a lead of said plural lead connector.
  • said electrically conducting spring means comprises an electrically highly conductive wire and wherein each of said wires differs in length from at least one other of said wires.
  • said head harness further includes means for pivotably securing said two sections at one end thereof and means at the other end thereof for limiting the pivotable movement of said sections.
