A trauma scene monitoring system includes a medic-worn illumination device, a casualty-worn informatics system, and a remote monitoring station. The illumination device includes a frame with boom-mounted light sources positioned below the wearer's eyes near the zygomatic bones, thus orienting the light sources to project light in the direction of the wearer's view. Also included are audio/video means to capture audio/video information from a scene attended by the medic, and a telemetry unit to transmit that information to the remote monitoring station. The casualty-worn informatics system is integrated within a headband worn by a monitored individual. The informatics system includes sensors to provide the monitored individual's vital statistics and a telemetry unit to transmit data concerning the monitored individual to the remote monitoring station. At the remote monitoring station, receiving and presentation stations provide views of the data concerning the monitored individual and audio/video data from the medic-worn illumination device.

Artifact identification in EEG measurements

Methods, systems, and computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for improving EEG measurements by identifying artifacts present in EEG measurements and providing a real-time indication to a user of likely artifacts in EEG measurements are described. EEG measurements of a patient can be obtained by placing a wearable device or EEG cap on a patient's head. Sensors in the cap provide EEG data to a computing device that processes the data to identify one or more artifacts in the EEG data. The artifacts can be identified by conducting one or more operations of determining the signal to noise ratio of the line noise, calculating mutual information between sensor pairs, and applying the p-welch method. Based on the types of artifacts identified, the computing device can output an indicator that provides feedback to the technician performing an EEG test to make adjustments to the test setup.
