This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $299,893 to Pascall Systems, Inc. to develop a novel system that combines pre-operative cognitive assessment with Pascall's FDA-cleared wireless EEG technology for intraoperative monitoring. The goal is to enable personalized anesthesia care and effective monitoring of postoperative neurocognitive disorders (PNDs) in elderly surgical patients.

The key products and services to be delivered under this award include:

  1. Developing a Perioperative Monitoring of Neurocognitive Disorders Test Battery (PMIND) and integrating it with Pascall's FDA-cleared wireless EEG system.
  2. Developing an algorithm to identify surgical patients at greater risk of postoperative delirium.
  3. Developing and integrating a measure to estimate intraoperative anesthetic requirements into Pascall's FDA-cleared wireless EEG system.

This project aims to shift current anesthesia practices towards more personalized patient care, especially for elderly patients at risk of PNDs. The award period runs from September 30, 2023 through June 30, 2024.
