www.emka.fr
EEG ANALYZER MODULEwithin ecgAUTO software
Automatic software seizure detection is peformed using combined analysis of various parameters
www.emka.fr
EPILEPSY SEIZURE DETECTIONwithin ecgAUTO software
• detection is based on a user defined multicriteria condition involving
1 to 4 parameters and associated thresholds
• among these parameters, some may be derived from FFT computations
• analysis is performed in successive epochs of adjustable length
and overlap percentage
www.emka.fr
EPILEPSY SEIZURE DETECTIONwithin ecgAUTO software
Example of detection settings:
• epochs of n seconds (typically 2 to 10)
• successive epochs overlap by x% (typically 0 to 50%)
• epoch is a candidate if its energy, or power within some frequency range (typically 3Hz to 10hz) exceeds a threshold
• seizure consists of a minimum number of consecutive candidate epochs (typically 2 to 3)
www.emka.fr
EPILEPSY SEIZURE DETECTIONwithin ecgAUTO software
Epochs of 4s, with 50% overlap. Single threshold on total epoch energy.Main data table shows epoch status and detected seizures

TETHER-FREE EEG TELEMETRYrodentPACK2 wireless, low cost, head-mounted EEG for rodents
Acquisition of EEG and other biopotential
signals, as well as activity/ positional data
Applications are varied, e.g. sleep and
epilepsy studies, ECG and EMG recording
www.emka.fr
• head-mounted biopotential telemetry for rodents- transmits data via radiotelemetry
• humane alternative to tethered EEG
• high signal to noise ratio
• replaceable battery for lifetime monitoring
TETHER-FREE EEG TELEMETRYrodentPACK2 wireless, low cost, head-mounted EEG for rodents
www.emka.fr
• 4 biopotential signals (EEG, ECG, EMG)
each sampled at 1 kHz
• 3-axis acceleration, sampled at 50Hz on
each axis
• global acceleration (computed from 3
axes), for activity assessment
• 1 temperature, sampled at 1Hz
TETHER-FREE EEG TELEMETRYrodentPACK2 wireless, low cost, head-mounted EEG for rodents
www.emka.fr
• electrodes implanted in the subject and linked to
a connector permanently glued onto the skull
• transmitter housing amplifiers, transmission electronics
and batteries, to be coupled to the head connector prior to experiment
• receiver to read transmitted data
TETHER-FREE EEG TELEMETRYrodentPACK2 wireless, low cost, head-mounted EEG for rodents
www.emka.fr
FEATURES
Radio transmission range 5m or more
Transmission duration with same batteries: 150 hours
(cost of batteries: 3€ ($4US) / pair)
Group housing multiple animals in same cage
Up to 32 animals in same room with no required shielding
www.emka.fr
ADVANTAGES
Noise free, high quality EEG signal
EEG electrodes are rigidly welded on the head connector which is itself solidly
linked to the transmitter, therefore animal movements trigger no flexible wire
movement and cause no artefact
3-axis acceleration allowing activity and posture assessment
Very low recurring cost
no transmitter refurbishment is ever necessary
batteries cost 3€ per recording
www.emka.fr
MORE ADVANTAGES
Low investment cost
To record simultaneously from 4 rats, your complete hardware investment is less than 13k€ ($18kUS)
Even lower investment cost
By scheduling your recordings, you may further decrease cost.
For example, conducting a study on 16 subjects split in 4 groups of 4, only requires a total hardware investment of 14k€ ($20kUS)

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Does the device alter subject behaviour?
After an acclimation of under 24 hours, the rats ignore the device. They do not « touch » it nor do they try to rub it on the cage sides
How long can the implanted electrodes and glued connector stay in place ?
Rats equipped with this types of electrodes and connectors have been routinely used for many years in tethered systems
Rats used for our tests were implanted 12 months ago and are still in good health.
No special precautions were taken during this period to keep the skin-to-glue junction clean or sterile.
