Abstract
ABSTRACT.This is part one of a two part series of articles describing the staffing model utilized for neurotelemetry and epilepsy unit monitoring. After peer review, many administrative and technical questions were left unanswered which will be addressed in the second article. Indiana University Health Neuroscience is a facility that provides all levels of care for adult and pediatric patients regarding their specific neurological needs. The facility currently has 24/7 monitoring at Methodist Hospital and Riley Hospital for Children, consisting of adult and pediatric patients for neurotelemetry and epilepsy unit monitoring. Each unit must have staffing models as well as specific protocols in order to adequately monitor each patient's EEG and maintain safety. Specific recommendations, protocols, and requirements have been drafted by administration to maintain a safe patient to neurodiagnostic technologist ratio of 4:1.
