Problem
Delirium and acute encephalopathy are common post-operative complications, particularly in older adults, and often go undetected in daily care. The failure to recognize these conditions can lead to delayed interventions and increased healthcare costs. Current methods for assessing brain health can be subjective and time-consuming.
Solution
DeltaScan Brain State Monitor is an EEG-based bedside device designed for the rapid and objective assessment of brain health, specifically to aid in the detection of acute encephalopathy and delirium. The device provides a quantitative measurement of brain function in approximately five minutes, enabling clinicians to make timely interventions, often before symptoms are readily apparent. By offering an objective measurement, DeltaScan aims to improve delirium management and facilitate prompt responses to neurotoxicity-generating treatments, ultimately improving patient outcomes and reducing healthcare expenditures associated with these complications. The device is both FDA-cleared and EU MDR certified.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes healthcare providers in hospitals and intensive care units, particularly those focused on geriatric care and post-operative recovery.
