The SPEAC® System Overview    The SPEAC® System by Brain Sentinel® is a surface electromyography (sEMG)-based ambulatory system that detects and alarms for generalized tonic-clonic seizures at home and in healthcare facilities. The SPEAC® System detects generalized tonic-clonic seizures in real-time, providing alerts within seconds. It also provides physicians with a record of the patient’s sEMG history using the system with accurate seizure counts and seizure history allowing for characterization by the physician. The SPEAC® System continuously monitors and analyzes surface electromyography data to detect, in realtime, generalized tonic-clonic (GTC) seizures, both primary and focal onset with secondary generalization. Once the diagnostic algorithm detects a seizure, the system rapidly alerts and warns patients and their designated caregivers while continuously and accurately recording the EMG data of the patient for clinical review by the physician. The GTC Seizure Detection and Warning System helps give both patients and their caregivers greater security and peace of mind.    Figure 2A.

All Rights Reserved.  18 3.2 SPEAC® System Setup Requirements   3.2.1 Finding the Best Place for the CradlePoint Wireless Router  The CradlePoint router should be placed on a stable horizontal surface within 6 feet of a wall outlet. If possible, the location of the router should be in place central to the patient’s daily activities. Considerations and Cautions:   Do not place the router in areas exposed to liquids, food or temperature extremes outside normal room temperatures.    Find a location with minimal or no activities that could damage any component in the system.   Locate the router as far away as possible from electrical equipment or appliances, e.g., microwave ovens that can generate Wi-Fi signal interference.   Avoid locations where physical obstructions might weaken the Wi-Fi signals, e.g., metal shielded wall.   Avoid locations where reflective or metal surfaces, such as mirrors, metal file cabinets, and metal counter tops that can reduce the network range and performance.  3.2.3 Finding the Best Place for the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station  The SPEAC® Laptop Base Station should be placed on a stable horizontal surface within 6 feet of a wall outlet (SUPPLY MAINS).  Considerations and Cautions:   The surface should have enough area for the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station, the AC adapter and a connected SPEAC® Detection Device. The location should allow efficient use of SPEAC® Laptop Base Station. We recommend a minimum 2ft by 2ft area.    Restrict activities in the vicinity of SPEAC® Laptop Base Station that could distract the operator. Any activity that could potentially damage the SPEAC® Detection Device should be prohibited in the vicinity of the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station.   The SPEAC® Laptop Base Station should be located within the audible range of the caregiver. Ambient noise levels should be minimized so the audible alarms generated by the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station are heard above all other sounds.  Figure 3B. The SPEAC® System Connections Diagram

The SPEAC® Detection Device is “Monitor Mode” while both LED lights are in solid green When the SPEAC® Detection Device is not in ¨Monitor¨ mode, it should be connected to the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station for downloading sEMG data, Detection Device firmware verification and battery charging and downloading sEMG data.  3.3.3 Panic Button  The SPEAC® Detection Device has two buttons on the face of it. See Figure 3E. The large button is the Panic button, marked with a bell. Use this if you feel that you are about to have a seizure. You must push and hold the Panic button for 3-5 seconds for it to alarm. Remember that if you have a generalized tonic-clonic seizure and do not push the button, the SPEAC™ System is designed to visually and audibly alarm automatically on both the SPEAC® Detection Device and SPEAC® Laptop Base Station. Automatic Seizure Alarm Triggered by SPEAC® Detection Device When a Generalized Tonic-Clonic Seizure is detected by the SPEAC® Detection Device, a Seizure Alarm is sent to the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station. A seizure alarm and vibration will be generated by the SPEAC® Detection Device. If the patient believes that the Seizure Alarm is incorrect, the alarm can be cancelled by pressing the Cancel Button twice on the SPEAC® Detection Device.  Manual Seizure Alarm Triggered by the Panic Button  When a patient presses and holds the “Panic” Button for five (5) seconds, a Seizure Alarm is sent the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station. The “Seizure has been detected” message will be show on the EMG Status window in red. The SPEAC® Detection Device will generate an alarm tone and vibration just as if the Automatic Seizure Alarm had activated. If the patient mistakenly triggers a Seizure Alarm via the Panic Button, the Seizure Alarm can be cancelled by pressing the Cancel Button twice. See the next section, 3.3.4 for instructions on cancelling a Seizure Alarm.  Figure 3F. The SPEAC® Detection Device Front View

All Rights Reserved.  21  3.3.4 Cancel Button The face of the SPEAC® Detection Device has 2 lights: a Wi-Fi Status light on the left and an Electrode Status light on the right. When Wi-Fi Status light is green it indicates that it is wirelessly connected to your SPEAC® Laptop Base Station. When the Electrode Status light is green, the electrode patch has good contact with your skin. It does not mean that is necessarily properly placed. See section 4.6.1 for a description of the LED states.  The LED on the right is called the Patient Connection LED and indicates the status of the electrode patch’s connection to the patient’s skin. The Wi-Fi and Patient Status LEDs should both be green when the SPEAC® Detection Device and Electrode Patch are properly connected to the patient and when the SPEAC® Detection Device is communicating wirelessly to the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station.  Each LED has three colors to be used to indicate the Wi-Fi Status and Patient Status to the patient and caregivers. The detailed description of the Patient Status LED states can be found in section 4.6.1.  If the Patient Status LED indicates a condition that is NOT described in section 4.6.1, turn the SPEAC® Detection Device off and immediately call Brain Sentinel®.  The small button marked with a crossed-out bell is the Cancel button as seen on Figure 3G. Use this if the SPEAC® System alarms for a seizure incorrectly and you are not having a seizure.  To use the Cancel button you should perform the following sequence: 1.  Press the Cancel button for 1 second.   2.  Release the Cancel button for about 1 second.  3.  Press the Cancel button again for 1 second.  This will cancel the audible and vibration alarms generated by the SPEAC® Detection Device and the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station. For operational alarms (Loose Electrode, Critical Battery or Wi-Fi Connection Out-of-Range), the Cancel button will only shortly delay them like a snooze button on an alarm clock. The alarm will go off again and can only be stopped once the issue has been resolved.  Figure 3G. The SPEAC® Detection Device Front View Figure 3G. The SPEAC® Detection Device Front View

The SPEAC® Detection Device enclosure is marked with the internationally accepted symbol for a Type BF Applied Part indicating all of the applied parts are electrically isolated from ground. The patient and operator are safe from electrostatic discharge shock.  3.5.3.2 Ingress Protection When a SPEAC® Detection Device is attached to the patient as instructed and its USB door is closed and locked, the SPEAC® Detection Device meets the IP47 classification. The SPEAC® Detection Device in ¨Monitor Mode” (both LEDs are solid green) will limit the intrusion of solid materials as small as dust-sized particles and will withstand exposure to splashing water from any direction.  Having said this, you must never expose the SPEAC® Detection Device to high-pressure water jets. Also, never allow the SPEAC® Detection Device to be submerged in any liquid while powered on. Contact Brain Sentinel® if the SPEAC® Detection Device or SPEAC® Laptop Base Station has been submerged. Do not attempt to use or service a SPEAC® Detection Device or SPEAC® Laptop Base Station that has been submerged.   Figure 3J. The SPEAC® Detection Device in the Shower
24-Hour Customer and Technical Support Available 1-855-275-5424 Copyright Brain Sentinel, Inc. 2015. All Rights Reserved.  25 3.5.3.3 Temperature of the Applied Parts The temperature of the SPEAC® System’s applied parts (those applied to the patient’s biceps and arm) should never exceed 35°C or 95° F. In normal conditions, the temperature of the applied parts will approach the skin temperature of the patient. If the surface temperature of any applied part is hot when touched, immediately detach the SPEAC® Detection Device and turn it off and contact Brain Sentinel®.  3.5.4 Safe Usage of the SPEAC® System While Charging or During Configuration 3.5.4.1 Electro-Static Discharge Shock When the SPEAC® Detection Device is detached from the Electrode patch, or the USB connector and the three electrode connections are accessible to the patient and/or operator, the basic safety of the SPEAC® Detection Device is the same as when it is attached to the Electrode. Typically, the SPEAC® Detection Device will be connected to the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station for charging when it is not in the ¨Monitor Mode” (both LEDs are solid green). Charging can only be done by connecting the SPEAC® Detection Device to the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station with the USB cable provided. When the SPEAC® Detection Device is connected to the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station for charging, the required isolation for safety is maintained because the AC Adapter and SPEAC® Laptop Base Station meet the requirements of Class II Medical Electrical Equipment.  3.5.4.2 Ingress Protection The SPEAC® System meets the IP22 classification when the SPEAC® Detection Device is in the Charge Mode (when the USB door of the SPEAC® Detection Device is open and connected to the USB cable). Solid material as small dust sized particles will have limited intrusion to the interior of the SPEAC® Detection Device enclosure through the USB door. The USB connector and the electrode connections are accessible and the SPEAC® Detection Device enclosure will only limit the intrusion of water to falling drops and light sprays. When the SPEAC® Detection Device is in the Charge/Configuration mode, position the SPEAC® Detection Device with the front surface facing up. This will restrict any liquid from accumulating on the rear surface near the USB connector and the electrode connections. The SPEAC® Detection Device meets the IP47 classification when the SPEAC® Detection Device is in ¨Monitor Mode¨ (USB Door closed). However, if the SPEAC® Detection Device is submerged, it will be at risk of taking in water, permanently damaging the SPEAC® Detection Device and preventing it from being able to monitor for GTC seizures. Further, while the SPEAC® Detection Device is submerged, it cannot monitor or alarm for GTC seizures.  3.5.4.3 Temperature of the SPEAC® Detection Device, Laptop Base Station and AC Adapter The parts of the SPEAC® Detection Device in the Charge/Configuration Mode are not Applied Parts. In normal room temperature and conditions, the temperature of the SPEAC® Detection Device, SPEAC® Laptop Base Station, and AC adapter should never exceed 35°C.   If the surface temperature of any SPEAC® Detection Device is hot to the touch, immediately detach the SPEAC® Detection Device from the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station, turn it off and contact Brain Sentinel®.  If the surface temperature of the AC Adapter or the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station is hot to the touch, immediately disconnect the power inlet cord to the AC Adapter, disconnect it from the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station, and shut it down.

Check the bottom Windows bar to see if the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station is connected to the Wi-FI. You should see a series of bars like in this screenshot.   5.  The SPEAC® BaseStationApp, will start automatically after Windows boots up. 6. If the “POST Error” appears, select OK. Close the SPEAC® BaseStationApp and reopen it. If the “POST Error” appears again, contact Brain Sentinel to help troubleshoot this issue. Leaving a POST Error unresolved means that the wireless connections are not functioning properly and may leave you unmonitored for generalized tonic-clonic seizures.   4.1.3 Launch the “Setup and Settings Setup Wizard”  In the SPEAC® BaseStationApp, there is a button on the bottom right called “Setup and Settings Setup Wizard”. Click this button to begin playing the Configuration Wizard videos. These Wizard videos provide instructions on the proper configuration, calibration and use of the SPEAC® System.     The videos included in the Wizard are as follows:   Welcome to your SPEAC® System   Your Biceps, a Critical Communicator to Help You “SPEAC®”    Preparing Your Biceps for Placement   Attaching the Electrode to the Detection Device   Placing the Device   Turning on the Detection Device   Electrode Setup   The Arm Strap   Changing the Device If you forget something you can always go back to the Wizard later to see the videos again.  Sections 4.1.4 – 4.1.6 of this User Manual are included for you to use along with the Wizard videos.  4.1.4 The Importance of Your Biceps Before using one of the pre-charged Detection Devices, you need to prepare your biceps. Your SPEAC® Detection Device works by continuously sensing and monitoring your surface electromyography (sEMG) signals. The Detection Device reads and records 1,000 sEMG samples every second. Then our SparkSenseTM diagnostic algorithm analyzes those samples looking for tonic-clonic muscle activity that is indicative of generalized tonic-clinic seizures. The continuous analysis and storage of your real-time EMG activity is why we say that the SPEAC® System is ready to speak for you during a seizure, and again when you visit your doctor. Figure 4D. The Setup and Settings Wizard
24-Hour Customer and Technical Support Available 1-855-275-5424 Copyright Brain Sentinel, Inc. 2015. All Rights Reserved.  29   The only place for the SPEAC® Detection Device is on your biceps, specifically what is known as ¨the belly of the biceps¨ as seen in Figure 4.C. To find it, flex your elbow. The belly of the biceps is the thickest part of the muscle, about halfway between your shoulder and elbow.  When properly placed, the electrodes on the Detection Device are recording your biceps’ activity 1,000 times a second. This helps the SPEAC® System stay on top of changes from your normal EMG patterns that might be indicative of a generalized tonic-clonic seizure.  The electrode patch should never be applied to irritated or broken skin. Please consult your physician if skin irritation should occur with use of this product.   4.1.5 Attaching the Detection Device to Your Biceps Before using one of the pre-charged SPEAC® Detection Devices, you need to prepare your biceps. Your doctor may recommend whether you should place the Detection Device on your right or left biceps, or if either is acceptable.  You must first prepare your skin over your biceps before placing the SPEAC® Detection Device on it. To do so, you need to remove the naturally occurring oils on the surface of your skin to ensure that the electrode patch stays properly attached to your arm. Find the wipes that came with your SPEAC® System and gently wipe the skin on top of your biceps. Do not use alcohol to clean your skin. Alcohol will react with the electrode gel and cause severe skin irritation.  Once your skin is prepared, take an electrode patch from the supply you were sent. Turn the Detection Device over and secure all three snaps in the sockets. You’ll hear a small click when you put them in. Don’t turn on the Detection Device just yet or else the alarm will sound.     Figure 4E. The Setup and Settings Wizard  Figure 4F. Electrode Patch placement in the SPEAC® Detection Device sockets
24-Hour Customer and Technical Support Available 1-855-275-5424 Copyright Brain Sentinel, Inc. 2015. All Rights Reserved.  30  Once the electrode patch is snapped in correctly, remove the plastic covering. This will expose the adhesive. Take a cotton swab, dip it in water, and moisten the gel on each of the three grey electrode contacts, twice.  Now take the SPEAC® Detection Device and place it on your biceps, holding it firmly against your biceps for five (5) seconds. As mentioned before you must place it on the belly of the biceps – not on the side, and not above or below the belly of the biceps. Remember, the electrode patch should never be applied to irritated or broken skin.  The adhesive on the electrode patch will generally last up to 24 hours. If the contact with your skin becomes poor, the Loose Electrode alarm will sound. Remember that you are still not being monitored, but you soon will be soon after you calibrate the electrode. Now, check the time and take note. The electrode gel needs 5 minutes to absorb the water you just applied to it so the Detection Device can properly monitor you. So, start a five minute countdown as soon as you have the SPEAC® Detection Device properly placed on your biceps.  4.1.6 The Electrode Setup Process In order for the surface electrodes to work properly, you must calibrate every new electrode patch you place on the SPEAC® Detection Device. Not doing so could result in you not being monitored properly. Before proceeding, make sure that 1.  The SPEAC®  Detection Device is OFF 2.  The CradlePoint Wireless Router is turned ON  3.  The SPEAC® Detection Device is adhered properly to your biceps Now the equipment is ready for you to move ahead to set up the electrodes.  Turn on the SPEAC® Detection Device by pressing the small button located on the top, as seen in Figure 4H.  When you press it, you’ll hear a sound. A series of lights will flash and after a moment, both lights will turn green to indicate that it is connected wirelessly to the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station. If the lights don’t turn green, double-check that the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station is connected to the CradlePoint Wireless Router.  Do not proceed past this step until both lights on your Detection Device are green. If you need immediate assistance, please call Brain Sentinel® at 1-855-275-5424.  The final step in getting your SPEAC® Detection Device ready for use is setting up the electrode. This is part of helping the SPEAC® System know the difference between a generalized tonic-clonic seizure and your normal activity. It also helps calibrate the SPEAC® Detection Device to background electrical noise. Once five (5) minutes have passed (as indicated in Section 4.1.4) for the gel to absorb the water, relax the arm that has the SPEAC® Detection Device on it. During this setup, don’t flex your biceps muscles. It’s best to have your arm simply hanging at your side. On the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station screen you will see a button for the Electrode Setup. Press it, then click “Begin Electrode Setup” and for the next 10 seconds, the SPEAC® System will be taking your EMG measurements. You can see the status on the screen while the three electrodes are automatically setup for you.  Figure 4G. Moistening the Electrode Gels   Figure 4H. SPEAC® Detection Device ON/OFF Button
24-Hour Customer and Technical Support Available 1-855-275-5424 Copyright Brain Sentinel, Inc. 2015. All Rights Reserved.  31 Correct EMG analysis relies on the characteristics of the electrode/skin interface.  When a new electrode patch is applied to the patient, these characteristics must be measured to make certain the proper compensations are provided. These measurements are required at each electrode change. During this procedure, the patient’s EMG levels at rest will be measured. When you see the "Electrode Setup is Complete" message, click the “Dismiss” button. You are now being monitored for generalized tonic-clonic seizure activity. Remember the electrode setup process must be completed whenever you apply a new electrode.  4.1.7 Electrode Patch Adhesive and Your Skin Ongoing use of the electrode patch may irritate your skin. To minimize this, it is important to take care when applying and removing the electrode patch. Here are a few tips.  Tips for applying the adhesive electrode patch   Apply an alcohol-free skin protectant to protect skin prior to applying the Adhesive Patch. (Please contact Brain Sentinel, Inc. for a list of skin protectants)   Allow all skin protectants to dry thoroughly before applying the Adhesive Patch Recommended procedures for removing Adhesive Patch   Loosen the edges of the Adhesive Patch   With the fingers of the opposite hand, push the skin down and away from the adhesive electrode patch, then…   Peel the adhesive electrode patch low and slow back over itself, keeping it horizontal and close to the skin surface   As the adhesive electrode patch is removed, continue moving fingers of the opposite hand as necessary to support newly exposed skin   You may want to loosen the adhesive bond by slow and careful removal of the adhesive electrode patch using water-soaked cotton balls to continuously wet the adhesive-skin interface   Use proper removal technique to avoid skin injury. Injury can be caused by quick removal of the Adhesive Patch at a high angle (perpendicular to the skin).  Injury can also be caused by not holding the skin at the peel line when removing the Adhesive Patch.  4.2 Configure the SPEAC® System Alarm Settings The SPEAC® System has both Seizure Alarms and System Operational Alarms. Through the SPEAC® BaseStationApp, you can configure   Alarm tones   Alarm tone volumes   Silence times for Operational Alarms (similar to a Snooze button on an alarm clock)   Alarm grace time periods (how long before a seizure alarm goes off once detected) The Alarm Settings are accessed from the Configuration window. Select the “Setup and Settings Setup Wizard” button in the bottom right of the application window and then select the Alert Settings tab to configure the tones generated for the alarms, and the silence and grace time periods.
24-Hour Customer and Technical Support Available 1-855-275-5424 Copyright Brain Sentinel, Inc. 2015. All Rights Reserved.  32   The default settings for the alarm settings are shown above. These will be configured by the physician’s office and should not be changed.   4.2.1. Alarm Tones and Volume Levels There are five alarm tones available in the SPEAC® System.  The default selections will result in unique tones for each of the alarm conditions and should not be changed. The default volume levels are set to “High” for all alarm conditions. But “Medium” and “Low” options are available. If you mute the alarm tones, the SPEAC® System will automatically turn them back on to medium level.  4.2.2. Silence Time There are three (3) Operational Alarms that will go off if something is preventing the SPEAC® System from working properly. These alarms are the   “Electrode” which sounds when the electrode patch is not adhered properly to the skin  “Battery” which sounds when the rechargeable battery is critically low and needs to be recharged  “Out of Range” which sounds when the SPEAC® Detection Device is outside of the Wi-Fi coverage zone and cannot connect to the rest of the SPEAC® System You have the option to “Silence” these alarms temporarily when they go off. However, the only way to permanently turn these alarms off is to resolve the underlying cause that set them off. For these alarms, the resolution for each is  “Electrode”: Adhere the electrode patch properly to the patient’s skin, which should be on the belly of the biceps. This may involve changing the electrode patch for a new one and/or putting on the SPEAC® Arm Strap.  “Battery”: Change out the battery for the charged one attached to the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station Figure 4G.

24-Hour Customer and Technical Support Available 1-855-275-5424 Copyright Brain Sentinel, Inc. 2015. All Rights Reserved.  33  “Out of Range”: Return to the covered Wi-Fi zone. It is important to know where these boundaries are in your home. Three Silence Lag Time options (1, 5 and 15 minutes), are available for these Operational Alarms. In addition, the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station will also visually display and sound for these alarms. When this happens, a “Silence” button will appear, allowing you to silence the alarm until you can resolve the issue and continue being monitored. Note: The SPEAC® Detection Device Critical Battery Alarm cannot be silenced or snoozed, and the alarm sound will start as soon as the alarm condition is received by the Base Station.  4.2.3. Seizure Alarm Grace Time The “Seizure Grace Time” is the delay between when a Seizure Alarm is received by the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station and when the Seizure Alarm sound is generated. Select one of four Seizure Grace Time settings: 0, 10, 15, or 20 seconds.  4.2.4. Operational Alert Grace Time When a Loose Electrode or Wi-Fi connection Alarm is received by the SPEAC® Laptop Base Station, the alarm sound will be delayed by the time selected in the “Alarm Grace Time” column. Select one of four Alarm Grace Time settings: 0, 1, 2 or 5 minutes.  4.2.5. Night Mode  In order to help you sleep soundly, you have the option to dim the LED lights on the SPEAC® Detection Device at night. Dimming the lights puts the SPEAC® Detection Device in “Night Mode”. This option is located at the bottom of SPEAC® BaseStationApp as shown below in Figure 4J.   Clicking the “Enable Night Mode” button will activate “Night Mode”, making the SPEAC® Detection Device LED light softer. This button will only appear when the “Night Mode” is disabled.    Clicking the “Disable Night Mode” button will bring back daylight mode, making the SPEAC® Detection Device LED operate at regular brightness. This button will only appear when the “Night Mode” is enabled.     4.3 Test the Wi-Fi Range of the SPEAC® Detection Device In an open field environment the CradlePoint IBR600 series router can communicate with the SPEAC® Detection Device up to approximately 300ft. However, the range within a building or dwelling will vary based on their size, shape and type of building material. These differences in home construction can affect the safe and effective monitoring range for Generalized Tonic-Clonic Seizures. Upon first setup in a Figure 4J.

The rechargeable internal battery of the SPEAC® Detection Device and the electrode sockets integrated into the SPEAC® Detection Device require scheduled service after 500 days of use. All other components of the SPEAC® Detection Device will be evaluated at this time. Contact Brain Sentinel® to arrange for service of your SPEAC® System. See Section 5 for contact information.  4.9.1 Cleaning All maintenance described below should only be performed while the Detection Device is NOT in use. The exterior surfaces of the SPEAC® System can be cleaned with a soft clean cloth, a paper towel dampened with 70% Isopropyl alcohol or disinfecting wipes. Lightly rub the exterior surfaces of the SPEAC® components: SPEAC® Detection Device, SPEAC® Laptop Base Station, AC Adapter, and USB cable and power cord. Remove any standing alcohol with a dry cloth or paper towel.  Do apply any liquid to the USB connector of the SPEAC® Detection Device.   4.9.2 Battery Maintenance Maintaining the SPEAC® Detection Device batteries charged at all times is critical for their ongoing proper performance. Like most rechargeable batteries, the SPEAC® Detection Device battery should be charged at least once every 4-6 weeks or kept at 50% charged when not being used. Fully charged batteries discharge when they are left unused and will lose effectiveness if they are left fully discharged for longer than four (4) weeks. Maintaining their charge will prolong the life of the batteries.   Charge the battery after each monitoring session. When the battery is fully charged, the battery can supply power for a 24-hour monitoring session. The time to charge a fully discharged battery is less than 6 hours. The internal rechargeable battery used in the SPEAC® Detection Device has a minimum of 500 charge-discharge cycles.  Temperature is a key factor in the battery’s performance over its life. Never charge the SPEAC® Detection Device if the ambient temperature is below 32° F (0° C) or above 113° F (45° C).  Operating (or discharge) temperature should be not be below 0° F (-18° C) or above 113° F (45° C).  The rechargeable battery used in the SPEAC® Detection Device can only be replaced by authorized personnel from Brain Sentinel®.  If properly used and maintained, the expected service life of the battery will meet the three-year expected service life of the SPEAC® System.

Clear any debris or foreign materials. The force applied by the electrode retaining snap will eventually reduce during normal use. Tests have shown the snap is capable of effectively retaining the electrode beyond 500 cycles.       4.9.4 SPEAC® Detection Device Enclosure/Case Maintenance Inspect the exterior for cracks and the interface between the front and rear enclosure halves. See Figure 4.9.4.  If defects are found, do not use the SPEAC® Detection Device and immediately contact Brain Sentinel® for a replacement.       4.9.5 Electrode Patch Maintenance Replacement of the electrode patch is required when the skin-to-electrode contact does not provide adequate EMG signal quality to the SPEAC® Detection Device’s electrical connections. The SPEAC® Detection Device continually monitors whether the electrode-to-skin contact is adequate to detect generalized tonic-clonic seizure conditions. When it is inadequate, the SPEAC® Detection Device issues an alarm to the patient and operator.  The skin-to-electrode contact is maintained by the hydrogel applied to the electrodes and the adhesive that bonds the electrode patch to the patient’s skin. Over time, the adhesive will degrade and the hydrogel will dry causing intermittent connection of the electrodes to the patient’s skin causing an inadequate electrode-to-skin condition. Dispose of the used electrode patch as regular household waste.   4.9.6 Expected Service Life  Expected service life of the SPEAC® System is three years.    Figure 4O.
