Bittium exhibits its innovative products and solutions for neuroscience at the Society for Neuroscience 2018 Conference

Oulu, Finland, October 30, 2018 – Bittium exhibits its innovative products and solutions for neurology at the Society for Neuroscience 2018 Conference on November 4-7 in San Diego, United States. The Society for Neuroscience is the world’s largest organization of scientists and physicians devoted to understanding the brain and the nervous system. Bittium has over 10 years of experience with applications for neurophysiology while the company has developed, for example, an electroencephalography (EEG) solution for TMS-EEG (EEG used during Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) and fMRI-EEG (EEG used during Magnetic Resonance Imaging) applications.

At the event Bittium will showcase Bittium NeurOne™ EEG/ERP system for brain electrical activity measurement and the wireless Bittium BrainStatus™ EEG amplifier and electrode headband meant for real-time brain electrical activity monitoring. Also presented are the new waterproof Bittium Faros™ cardiac ECG signal measuring and monitoring devices and Bittium FastFix™ patch electrode for ECG measurement.

Products and solutions exhibited at the event are:

  • Bittium NeurOne is one of the quickest and most accurate EEG measuring devices in the world designed for clinical and research use. Bittium NeurOne system enables fully synchronized group measuring of up to 30 persons simultaneously for example in different types of psychological studies. The solution is optimized for use with transcranial magnetic stimulators (TMS-EEG), with optional possibility to use it during magnetic resonance imaging procedures (fMRI-EEG).
  • Bittium BrainStatus is a wireless compact EEG amplifier, which is used together with a disposable easy and quick to wear Bittium BrainStatus electrode headband for example to provide the measurements to diagnose epileptic seizures and brain stroke. Bittium BrainStatus enables quick measurement in field conditions as well as in hospitals, thus making the treatment process of the patient faster. Bittium BrainStatus can be used for wireless real-time remote EEG monitoring or data can be recorded in the device memory.
  • Bittium Faros is a versatile waterproof ECG device that is used for early detection of cardiac abnormalities in everyday life. Bittium Faros is ultra-small and lightweight, which enables precise long-term full disclosure ECG measurements for long-term Holtering, cardiac event monitoring, mobile cardiac telemetry and assessing autonomic nervous system functions.
    Bittium Faros outpatient monitoring solutions include several software options for cardiac monitoring. The built-in arrhythmia detection algorithms of Bittium Faros device are used for event recording and mobile cardiac event monitoring. Bittium’s solutions enable earlier repatriation of patients and better ability to react to potentially emerging arrhythmias faster.

Bittium’s products and solutions are exhibited at stand 3426.
