What is it indicated for?

The Datex-Ohmeda Entropy Module, E-Entropy and accessories are indicated for adult and pediatric patients older than 2 years within a hospital for monitoring the state of the brain by data acquisition of electroencephalograph (EEG) and frontal electromyograph (FEMG) signals. The spectral entropies, Response Entropy (RE) and State Entropy (SE), are processed EEG and FEMG variables. The Entropy measurement is to be used as an adjunct to other physiological…

The Datex-Ohmeda Entropy Module, E-Entropy and accessories are indicated for adult and pediatric patients older than 2 years within a hospital for monitoring the state of the brain by data acquisition of electroencephalograph (EEG) and frontal electromyograph (FEMG) signals. The spectral entropies, Response Entropy (RE) and State Entropy (SE), are processed EEG and FEMG variables. The Entropy measurement is to be used as an adjunct to other physiological parameters.

In adult patients, Response Entropy (RE) and State Entropy (SE) may be used as an aid in monitoring the effects of certain anesthetic agents, which may help the user titrate anesthetic drugs according to the individual needs of adult patients. Furthermore in adults, the use of Entropy parameters may be associated with a reduction of anesthetic use and faster emergence from anesthesia.

The Entropy module is indicated for use by qualified medical personnel only.

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