We monitor the nervous system and musculature during surgery and intensive care, and perform non-invasive neuromodulation treatments. Clinical neurophysiology is used to examine patients for disorders such as neurological diseases, epilepsy, pain, sleep disorders, nerve damage and muscle diseases, for example myopathies. We also specialise in diseases that cause disorders of consciousness and sensory impairment (sight, hearing, touch). A referral from a physician is required for all examinations. In addition to diagnostic tests, we treat patients with non-invasive neuromodulation techniques (repetitive transcranial magnetic simulation and transcranial direct current stimulation), as well as monitor the function of the nervous system, musculature and sensory organs during surgery and in intensive care. The examinations and treatments we provide include but are not limited to the following: Electroencephalogram (EEG) Electroneuromyography (ENMG) Cardiorespiratory polygraphy Visual evoked potential (VEP) Brainstem auditory evoked potential (BAEP) Repetitive transcranial magnetic simulation (rTMS) See our patient instructions (Hoito-ohjeet.fi) Arrival Arriving to the Lighthouse hospital.

For students In cooperation with the university and university of applied sciences, we train specialising physicians, medical students and students in the health care sector (Bachelors of Health Care). The ward also offers the opportunity to complete the university hospital training required to qualify as a medical physicist. Medical students: basic education in clinical neurophysiology with an emphasis on the general practitioner’s perspective, guidance in advanced studies. Specialising physicians: the opportunity to complete the university hospital training required to qualify as a specialist. Scientific postgraduate education: PhD mentoring in medicine and health care. Students in the health care sector: studies in clinical neurophysiology are included in the studies aiming for the Bachelor of Health Care in laboratory technology degree. During their time at the hospital, the students will gain expertise in a wide range of clinical neurophysiology examinations. It is also possible for Bachelor of Health Care students to do their advanced studies on our ward. Medical physicists: the opportunity to complete the university hospital training required to qualify as a medical physicist. Please see the Hospital as a learning environment -page. Find out more about the unit (video/ Finnish) Information about clinical neurophysiology for students (pdf/ Finnish) Quality We have been using a quality management system accredited by FINAS (Finnish Accreditation Service) since 2003. We meet the qualification requirements of EN/ISO/IEC 17025:2017. Information on the scope and validity of the accreditation of our testing laboratory (T212) is available on the FINAS website. FINAS can grant accreditation for four years at a time, but carries out annual periodic inspections on dates agreed in advance. As an accredited unit, our systematic operations are carefully planned and documented. Our management team discusses issues such as the appointment status, examination numbers, patient and client feedback, incidents, internal audits, quality control and staff introduction to new methods every month. Verifying measurements of equipment, quality control, audits and training proceed according to an annual plan. We are constantly developing our operations on the basis of the feedback we receive. Learn more about the scope of the accreditation in clinical neurophysiology The Clinical Neurophysiology Unit is a service area in the Hospital Services Result Group of Tyks Medical Imaging.
