What is it indicated for?

The SNAP Il is intended to monitor the state of the brain by data acquisition of EEG signals. A derived measure provided by the SNAP I, the SNAP Index, indicates the patient’s brain activity level.

The SNAP II is intended for use under the direct supervision of a licensed healthcare practitioner or by personnel trained in its proper use, within a hospital or medical facility providing patient care.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
