Abstract

Protecting the wellbeing of both personnel and patient in medical and scientific activities is critical for continuing these activities uninterrupted. The SARS-CoV-2(COVID-19) pandemic continues to disrupt many daily activities including medical and scientific. Electroencephalography (EEG) requires an extensive preparation and testing period that involves a highly trained experimenter being in close physical proximity with the participant, thus contains the risk of viral infection transmission.This report proposes suggestions on how to minimize virus transmission risks in EEG research and clinical use, without major compromises in data quality.

EEG çalışmalarında viral enfeksiyon bulaşma riskini azaltma yönergeleri

Abstract

Sağlık ve bilimsel araştırma faaliyetlerinde hem çalışan hem de hasta sağlığını korumak, bu faaliyetlerin kesintisiz devam edebilmesi için önem taşımaktadır. SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) salgını, ülkemizde ve dünyada sağlık ve araştırma faaliyetleri dahil bir çok günlük aktiviteyi aksatmaya devam etmektedir. Elektroensefalografi (EEG) çalışmaları, eğitimli bir yürütücünün, bir hasta veya katılımcı ile hazırlık ve çekim süreçleri boyunca uzun bir süreliğine yakın temasta olmasını gerektirmektedir ve bu nedenle bulaşıcı hastalıkların yayılma riskini taşımaktadır. Bu yazı, tetkik ve araştırma amaçlı EEG kullanımlarının, veri kalitesini büyük derecede etkilemeden virüs yayılma riskini asgari seviyede tutarak nasıl yürütülebileceği konusunda öneriler sunmaktadır.
