EEG devices for monitoring brain activity

About Ceribell

Ceribell focuses on developing medical devices that utilize electroencephalogram (EEG) technology to monitor brain activity. Their main product, the Ceribell EEG Headband and Recorder, is designed for use by trained healthcare providers in professional settings. These devices help gather important data about a patient's brain activity, which healthcare professionals can analyze to make informed treatment decisions, especially in urgent situations like Nonconvulsive Status Epilepticus (NCSE), where timely intervention is crucial. Unlike some other EEG devices, Ceribell's products do not provide diagnostic conclusions or automated alerts; they serve purely as data collection tools. Ceribell differentiates itself by emphasizing the speed and efficiency of data gathering, which is vital in critical care scenarios. The company's goal is to enhance the ability of healthcare providers to monitor and respond to neurological conditions effectively.
