SCOPE OF WORK The VHA Non-Expendable Equipment National Program has identified the Electroencephalography (EEG): Electroencephalographic Systems product line as a candidate for a VA-wide (otherwise referred to as national ) single award Requirements contract. EEG uses electrodes placed on a patient's scalp to measure, amplify, filter, and record the electrical signals (EEG signals) generated by the brain and subsequently display the acquired patient data in digital wave forms. There are three Neurodiagnostic procedures that Electroencephalographic systems are used for: EEG, Intraoperative Neurophysiological Monitoring (IONM), Long-Term Monitoring (LTM). The first Neurodiagnostic procedure, EEG, is used in areas such as Outpatient Labs, Inpatient Wards, and ICU settings. It observes and diagnoses a range of neurologic conditions, including epilepsy. It can also be employed to evaluate psychiatric disorders and differentiate them from neurologic conditions. IONM has the capability to monitor the functional integrity of neural structures during surgeries such as Carotid Endarterectomy, Corticography, Brain Mapping, Stimulation, Aneurysm Clipping, and the effects of anesthesia on the brain during these procedures. LTM is the collection of EEG data over a period of time. These recordings include Ambulatory EEG (aEEG), which is used for recording at the Veteran s residence. Continuous EEG (cEEG) is used for inpatient video monitoring greater than 2 hours. Prolonged EEG (pEEG) monitoring is used for outpatient video monitoring greater than 2 hours. Video EEG (vEEG) is an elective EEG admission for prolonged video EEG recording which is performed in an Epilepsy Monitoring Unit (EMU). An EMU is a specialized inpatient unit designed to evaluate, diagnose, and treat seizures. The ability to record and monitor non-invasive scalp electrode EEG, intracranial EEG (Grid and Strip), and invasive stereotactic depth electrodes (sEEG) is the gold standard using state-of-the art continuous video electroencephalogram (vEEG) monitoring technology. Offerors must demonstrate the ability to meet all requirements for the solicitation. The objective is to provide Electroencephalography (EEG): Electroencephalographic Systems to be used by clinicians throughout the VA medical centers and facilities. The period of performance is for a base of 12-months with four 12-month option periods. 2.
