Neurostimulation devices applied for the treatment of epilepsy that collect, encode, temporarily store, and transfer electroencephalographic (EEG) signals recorded intracranially from epileptic patients, suffer from short battery life spans. The principal goal of this study is to implement strategies for low power consumption rates during the device’s smooth and uninterrupted operation as well as during data transmission. Our approach is organised in three basic levels. The first level regards the initial modelling and creation of the template for the following two stages. The second level regards the development of code for programming integrated circuits and simulation. The third and final stage regards the transmitter’s implementation at the evaluation level. In particular, more than one software and device are involved in this phase, in order to achieve realistic performance. Our research aims to evolve such technologies so that they can transmit wireless data with simultaneous energy efficiency.
This research refers to the creation of a method of medical technology such as a device that can collect, encode, temporarily store, and transfer electroencephalographic signals from epileptic patients for study and evaluation. For applying the specific apparatus related to neurostimulation technologies such as Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) and Responsive Neurostimulation (RNS) the approaches followed concern three basic levels. The first level is concerned with initial modelling and creating the template for the following two stages. Further on, the second level is based on developing code for programming integrated circuits and simulation with the appropriate software. The third and final stage is the most substantial, as the transmitter’s construction is attempted at the evaluation level. In particular, more than one software and device are involved in this phase for the most realistic performance of the desired result. However, it is worth noting that the principal goal of this study is to achieve low consumption rates for the device’s complete and smooth operation. As a result, this research aims to evolve this device so that it can send data wirelessly and simultaneously provide energy efficiency.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
