Effects of Electromagnetic Field and Noise on Resting Electroencephalogram of Health Subjects

Xijing Hospital128 enrolled

Overview

With the development of science and technology, there are more and more electromagnetic and noise factors in the working and living environment. These two factors often exist together, and their impact on people may interact. Scalp EEG is a classic nerve detection technology, which can reflect the functional state of the brain in a non-invasive and real-time manner. This project intends to use EEG technology to study the effects of electromagnetism and noise on human brain function.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

alpha band power of the EEG spectral

Time frame: Procedure (record EEG during the noise and RF expose, and then compute the alpha band power of the EEG )

theta band power/beta band power of the EEG spectral

Time frame: Procedure (record EEG during the noise and RF expose, and then compute theta/beta of the EEG )
