The system allows extended EEG monitoring without having the subject tethered with wires. ## Device Story Crystal-EEG Model 10 is a mobile, wireless EEG system for extended patient monitoring. Input: bioelectric signals via scalp electrodes. System components: transmitter, receiver assembly, patient accessories (electrodes, headband, battery), and optional PC operator interface. Operation: transmitter captures EEG signals; wireless transmission (902-928 MHz) to receiver; receiver outputs signals for display/analysis. Used in clinical settings to eliminate tethering wires. Healthcare providers use the PC interface to set up the transmitter and monitor data. Benefits: enables patient mobility during EEG recording. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. Evaluated noise amplitude by shorting 24 input channels across three transmitters, resulting in RMS noise of ~1 uV. Functional accuracy verified using a signal generator to transmit analog sine waves (5 Hz and 20 Hz). Frequency response tested across 0.12-80 Hz range to verify filter attenuation performance. No clinical data provided. ## Technological Characteristics 8-channel wireless EEG telemetry system. Operates at 902-928 MHz. Dynamic input range +/-300 uV. Includes transmitter, receiver, and optional PC interface. Implements low and high pass filters for signal conditioning. Software consists of three modules for system operation. ## Regulatory Identification An electroencephalograph is a device used to measure and record the electrical activity of the patient's brain obtained by placing two or more electrodes on the head. ## Predicate Devices - Hambrecht Associates Multi-Channel Electroencephalographic Telemetry System ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

J) Summary of Safety and Effectiveness of Crystal-EEG Model 10: The Summary of Safety and Effectiveness on Crystal-EEG Model 10 reflects data available and presented at the time the submission was prepared, but caution should be exercised in interpreting the data. The results of future studies may require alterations of the conclusions or recommendations set forth.

The transmitted signal (noise) at the receiver end was recorded. Figure 1 shows the results for the 24 channels of transmitted data (8 channels/Transmitter). The RMS of the noise was in the order of $1\mathrm{uVolt}$. {2} Cleveland Medical Devices Inc. ![img-0.jpeg](img-0.jpeg) Figure 1. Noise when 24 channels shorted The Crystal-EEG Model 10 unit was then evaluated in its ability to measure and transmit known analog waveforms. The analog signals were provided by a signal generator. Figures 2 and 3 show two examples of such data from one typical channel with the analog sine waves at 5 and 20 Hz, respectively. For both cases the sine waves were measured and transmitted across the link. ![img-1.jpeg](img-1.jpeg) Figure 2. 5 Hz Sine Wave {3} Cleveland Medical Devices Inc. ![img-2.jpeg](img-2.jpeg) Figure 3. 20 Hz sine wave The next step was to verify the functional accuracy of the low and high pass filters. The frequency of a sine wave was varied between 0.12 and 80 Hz and the peak values of the sine waves recorded. Table 1 shows the measured peak value for each frequency. These data verify the accuracy of the implemented filters by showing expected levels of attenuation at the both ends of the spectrum. Table 1.
