Abstract
A system for acquiring and processing a subject'"'"'s brain electrical activity is provided. The system includes at least one electrode, at least one analog amplifier channel, an analog-to-digital converter, a stimulus generator, and a digital signal processor configured to perform a harmonic signal analysis algorithm. The at least one analog amplifier channel, the analog-to-digital converter, and the digital signal processor are configured on a single integrated physical circuit. All the components of the system are configured to reside on a common portable unit to make the system easily applicable at the point-of-care. The system records and processes a subject'"'"'s spontaneous neuroelectric signals as well as evoked potentials in real-time, and generates analyzed data representative of a subject'"'"'s neurophysiological condition.
