    The hardest part is when the patient is lying down and getting O1-O2.
    As far as sitting upright, I still struggle with my circumference sometimes.
    Thanks for the video !!!

      Yes the ones in the back of the head are definitely hardest to get!

    Yes! I love the up front tip! It’s all confidence and repetition:)

      repetitions build the confidence you need to feel more comfortable with real patients 😊

    Hi Jared, placing EEG in a real head is challenging for those with thick hair. For O1-O2 for circumference I get a tip from my TA to start from Oz and 5% Rt -> O2, 5% Lt -> O1 then at the occipital we will have the dominant 3 dots above inion. I also agree with you that visual approximation will help than worry with 0.5-1 cm difference.

      Electrodes in back of the head are definitely challenging with thick hair! Making 5% marks to the left and right of Oz can definitely help people getting lost marking O1/O2.

    When you say wrap tape around…just clear tape? I have one I’m using to practice but I’m struggling getting the ink off. Thank you for all your videos!!

      Yes any regular clear tape put it on the bald mannequin. You can wipe your marks off easily with dry erase markers. Good luck practicing!

    Is being off a couple of centimeters from rounding okay for the measurement exam ?

    • @jaredbeckwith
      @jaredbeckwith  Рік тому

      I think you’re able to be off up to 0.5 centimeters on each mark. Nobody is able to make every mark perfect, so just try your best 😊

    How about playing a movie for your patient to watch?

      They can watch a movie / tv during the hookup.
