PLACE TRANSDUCER/S
Place the probe or insert earphones in the infant’s ear/s or place the headset over the infant’s ears.
The probe light will turn green when a good seal is obtained.
RUN TEST
Press the START button on the Titan or press the preamplifier button.
PATIENT NOISE (EEG)
After starting the test, the patient noise/EEG bar is displayed at the top of the screen.
If the patient noise goes above the black line, try to calm the
infant to reduce movement, crying, sucking etc.
If the infant appears calm and the patient noise is not ideal,
stop the test and select a protocol with a higher rejection
level (if available).
If the patient noise/EEG signal is still not ideal, refer to the
EEG troubleshooting section below.
RESULTS
PASS result
REFER result
PASS – when the result reaches 100% for the pass criteria, PASS is displayed in green above the
measurement.
REFER – when the result does not reach 100% for the pass criteria within the measurement time, REFER is
displayed in amber above the measurement.
INCOMPLETE – if the test is stopped before a PASS or REFER is generated by the system, INCOMPLETE
is displayed above the measurement indicating that the full test was not completed.
EEG TROUBLESHOOTING
When the patient noise/EEG signal is poor, and the patient is calm, try the following:
•
Turn off (if possible) all electronic devices/sources, such as lights, computers, mobile phones etc.
•
Ensure that the Titan battery is not being charged (via the cradle) during testing
•
If impedances were initially poor, clean the skin/use conductive gel and replace the electrodes
