1 Long Term Monitoring EEG Boy Version
2 I am getting ready for my visit to Boston Children's Hospital. When I get there with my parent, we will walk through the lobby, take a left up the stairs, and down the hall to the Admitting area.
3 When we get there, we will talk with someone at the front desk to let them know that we have arrived.
4 If they are ready for me then I can go right upstairs, but I might have to wait for a little while if they aren t ready yet. While I am waiting, my parent might help me to find something to do while I wait.
5 Once they are ready for me, we will follow the purple moon and stars signs to the main building. We will take the elevators to the 9th floor and follow the signs for 9 Northwest.
6
7 If the room is not ready, we might get to spend some time in the activity room.
8 When the room is ready, we can go back and get settled and wait for the nurse or technologist to come say hello.
9 My parent might help me put on hospital pajamas or a button down shirt that we brought from home. My parent also brought some clothes from home to stay overnight with me.
10 When it is time to get ready for the test, I might have to go to a room like this to have my EEG leads put on or I might stay in my own room and have them put on in there.
11 A technologist will arrive with his/her cart of materials. She/he will tell me what it is like to get the electrodes (or small gold disks with long colorful wires) placed on my head. Now I can get ready for my EEG!
12 Getting an EEG can be a really neat experience.
13 When it is time for my EEG, a technologist will ask me to lay flat on the stretcher (or a bed with wheels). The technologist will be by my head. I can remember to stay still the whole time so the electrodes don t move. If it is hard for me to stay still, the technologist might wrap my body in a sheet to help remind me, but this is okay. I will be safe.
14 I might meet the Child Life Specialist. She can find me something fun to do while I have to lay still for my EEG
15 Or maybe I can watch a movie.
16 I can also have something special with me that I brought from home.
17 I will get the EEG placed on my head. First, the technologist will measure my head.
18 Then s/he put crayon marks where the electrodes will be going. These marks will wash off later.
19 Next s/he will rub the marks off using a Q- tip and some soap that feels sandy.
20
21 Then s/he will put the electrodes on my head using glue.
22
23 Next s/he will put a small piece of gauze (or soft cloth) on top of each electrode. The cloth will be dipped in special glue. The glue might feel wet and cold on my head, but this is okay.
24 Next s/he will dry the glue with an air hose that will blow cool wind. The glue might have a funny smell too!
25 There are many electrodes that s/he will need to put on my head. Everyone will be so proud of me when I lay still to have them put on.
26 I may even have some on my chest or on my chin! This is okay.
27 After the electrodes are on, s/he will wrap my head with soft gauze and tape.
28
29 Finally, s/he will put a cloth cap on my head to cover the wires. Then I will wear a backpack which will hold the small computer that the wires are attached to.
30 This is what the small computer will look like.
31 And this is what the backpack will look like.
32 Then, I might be able to get a prize for doing a great job.
33 Everyone will be so proud of me!
34
35 The technologist may also help me put on my backpack so I can walk back to my room.
36
37 When we arrive back to our room, the technologist will plug in my computer with a long cord.
38 I might meet my first nurse next. S/he will take care of me for a while. I might have a few different nurses while I stay at the hospital. S/he will put a bracelet on my wrist that says my name on it. S/he will also ask my parent lots of questions to learn all about me.
39 S/he might check my temperature. The nurse will use a thermometer to do this. The nurse might place the thermometer in my mouth or under my arm.
40 S/he might check my blood pressure. The nurse will do this by wrapping a piece of cloth around my arm. The cloth will feel very tight but this is ok. This is to learn about how my heart is working.
41 S/he might listen to me with his/her stethoscope. This is to learn about how my heart and lungs are working. The stethoscope might feel a little cold, but this is ok.
42 S/he might ask me to step onto a scale to see how tall I am and to see how much I weigh.
43 I will have to stay in my room for the EEG test and while I stay at the hospital, but there will be lots of fun things that I can do! There are even visitors like the Child Life Specialist, volunteers, clowns, artists, or dogs who can come by and play with me.
44 During the EEG, I can also watch movies, eat, sleep, or just hang out and play games.
45
46
47
48
49
50 I may stay over for one night with my parent, or I may stay over for a few days. The doctors will decide how long I need to stay at the hospital.
51 Each day, the doctors will talk to my caretakers about what they have learned from my EEG test.
52 When the test is over, I will get my hat taken off with a special glue remover and the electrodes will be taken off my head. Then my hair will be washed with shampoo and a wash cloth.
53
54
55 Then they will tell us when it is time to pack up our things and go home. The nurse will talk to my parent and my parent will sign some papers.
56 Then it is time to go to our car and head home. Everyone will be so proud of me!
