 Cognitrace - The clinical neuro-psychiatry system 
 
EEG and cognitive evoked potentials may be used in the evaluation of certain psychiatric disorders. Cognitrace provides you with a complete battery of tests that can be used in daily routine to discriminate between psychiatric and neurological diseases.

Cognitrace applies dedicated recording hardware and analysis protocols for EEG and evoked potential (EP) data. Topographical maps of the spectral power of EEG and the event-related brain responses are linked with statistical information available for age-matched reference groups to gain objective data that help differentiating psychiatric from neurological cases.
Cognitrace - the neuro-psychiatry system 
 
Comprehensive cognitive tests
Audio-visual stimuli are presented to the patient while the system collects the corresponding brain waves through the scalp. The most common sessions include:
 
 
Spontaneous EEG
Eyes open/closed condition, hyperventilation, photic flash stimulation: indication for possible neurological deficits.

Visual Evoked Potential (VEP)
Response of the brains visual system.

Auditory Evoked Potential (AEP)
Cortical (long latency) response of the auditory system.

P50 paradigm
Inhibition of the brain to repeated information.
 
Auditory oddball paradigm (P300)
Capacity to process relevant and ignore irrelevant information, indicator for attention deficits of various forms.

Contingent Negative Variation (CNV)
Response anticipation.

Continuous Performance Test (CPT)
Potential to study attention and inhibition processes and the development of those in children
 
 
What makes Cognitrace different?
Cognitrace contains a complete set of cognitive tests that allows the health-professional to obtain neurometric support for psychiatry patient evaluation. Recordings are done in the most efficient way and the semi-automated report generation allows the technician to focus on the analysis. The system is modular and can be extended with other cognitive paradigms easily to allow for customization and application for different psychiatric disorders.

Complete turnkey solution
The innovative click-and-go concept of Cognitrace contributes to the efficiency of the system. Well-designed templates outline the workflow and lead you step-by-step through the recording, analysis and reporting. The intuitive displays for EEG traces, voltage and spectral maps are documented automatically into ready-to-print reports.

Easy operation
Patient management and administration are indispensable for a clinical system. Cognitrace provides a smooth network-wide user interface for the administration of patients, their recordings and reports. Cognitrace is set up in a way that regular EEG and complex cognitive trials are combined in one session, which saves time and money.
