Electrodiagnostic Lab Technicians
CNS Neurodiagnostics utilizes Board Certified, Board Eligible, and Specially Trained Electrodiagnostic Technologists. These professionals specialize in Nerve Conduction Studies (NCS) - a recording of electrical potentials from the peripheral nerves and Electroencephalogram (EEG) - a recording of the electrical activity of the brainwaves on a graph or computer.
Electrodiagnostic Technologists are responsible for the following:
- Taking medical histories and preparing the patient for the test
- Explaining the procedure to the patient
- Positioning the patient to ensure adequate accessibility and patient comfort
- Applying EEG electrodes to the patient's head with adhesive paste
- Making notes on the recorded graph to identify interferences such as poor electrode contact or patient movement during EEG
- Recognizing, identifying and resolving artifact, and determining whether physiologic, non-physiologic
- Monitoring the patient during the EEG procedure and responding to medical emergencies such as convulsive seizures
- Maintaining the diagnostic equipment to ensure accurate testing and diagnosis
- Removes recording electrodes and cleans electrode and stimulation sites according to recommended established guidelines
- To understand the physiology of the study being performed
- Determine stimulation intensity to produce the proper waveforms
- Adequately warming the patient limb
- ...and much more
