Abstract:
Background: Few studies have explored the effects of anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs) on electroencephalograph (EEG) findings during the assessment of seizure management. Although a patient may reach seizure freedom, EEG results may continue to be abnormal. Further information is required to understand the trend of EEG findings during seizure treatment. Methods: This is a retrospective study based on chart reviews. Patients who had epilepsy evaluations at the Royal University Hospital in Saskatoon between January 2012 and December 2015, were selected. The relationships among time of initiating AEDs

The predictive value of epileptiform discharges for subsequent epilepsy after febrile seizures was studied in 140 children: 72 children (51%) had simple febrile seizures and 68 children (49%) had complex febrile seizures. Electroencephalography (EEG) was performed in 103 children (74%), it was normal in 66 (47%) and with epileptiform patterns in 37 patients (26%). At follow-up in 2017, 10 children developed epilepsy, 1 had a single epileptic seizure, 9 of them had epileptiform EEGs. Of the patients with normal EEGs after complex febrile seizures, none developed epilepsy, and 92% of patients wi

Abstract:
AbstractElectroencephalography (EEG) is a valuable tool in the diagnosis of epilepsy. The attainment of a high quality EEG requires patient's co-operation which is particularly difficult in children. Chloral hydrate has been used as a sedating agent in EEGs but it has potential serious adverse effects and anti-epileptic activity. Melatonin is used increasingly in different investigations as a safe alternative. Our study is to compare their effectiveness as sedating agents in performing EEGs and the detection rate of abnormal EEGs. This is a retrospective study performed in a regional hospital

Technological competency is an expression of caring in nursing. Nurses need to understand patients’ emotions and understand patients’ worlds as if these were their own. This is “empathic understanding.” Electroencephalograms (EEGs) were performed on five healthy participants while viewing an emotionally charged “sentimental” movie. EEG changes were collected and compared with data during a less emotionally charged situation. Apower map and spectrogram analyses of EEGs showed that alpha bands at the occipital region were specifically pronounced during the emotionally charged state. This study s

Epileptic discharges are not considered a part of the clinical picture of selective mutism, and electroencephalography is generally not recommended in its work-up. This report describes 6 children with selective mutism who were found to have a history of epilepsy and abnormal interictal or subclinical electroencephalography recordings. Two of them had benign epilepsy of childhood with centro-temporal spikes. The mutism was not related in time to the presence of active seizures. While seizures could be controlled in all children by medications, the mutism resolved only in 1. Although the discha

Purpose: Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders in both adults and children. After detailed history-taking, electroencephalography (EEG) is the most important investigation in the evaluation of epilepsy patients. Polyspikes, defined as a sequence of two or more spikes, are among the findings that can be seen on EEGs of epilepsy patients, but the literature on their significance in focal epilepsy patients is scarce. Therefore, in the current study, we investigated the significance of polyspikes on EEG in childhood focal epilepsy. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducte

Abstract:
The central nervous system electrical potentials recorded by the EEG are sensitive to alterations in the levels of consciousness and attention (Mesulam, 1986). Thus it is understandable that previous studies on delirious patients using routine EEGs have shown an increase of slow-wave activity and slowing and disruption of the normal alpha rhythm (Romano &amp; Engel, 1944). At present, the electrocephalogram is widely accepted as a valuable ancillary laboratory procedure for diagnosis and serial evaluation of delirium, as EEG changes often accompany delirium.

However, whether TRPV1 channels are present in brain regions other than the hypothalamus has been a subject of debate. Here, we addressed this issue with an unbiased functional test by recording electroencephalograms (EEGs) to examine whether capsaicin injection directly into the rat lateral ventricle could alter brain electrical activity.

An acute stressor can cause sleep disruptions. Electroencephalography (EEG) is one of the major tools to measure sleep. In rats, sleep stages are classified as rapid-eye movement (REM) sleep and non-rapid-eye movement (NREM) sleep, by different characteristics of EEGs. Sleep alterations after exposure to an acute stress are regularly determined by the power spectra of brain waves and the changes of vigilance stages, and they all depend on EEG analysis.
