Non-neurophysiologist Physicians and Nurses Can Detect Subclinical Seizures in Children Using a Panel of Quantitative EEG Trends and a Seizure Detection Algorithm

Abstract

PURPOSE: This study evaluated the sensitivity of nonconvulsive seizure detection by non-neurophysiologist physicians and nurses using a panel of quantitative EEG (QEEG) trends in the setting of a pediatric intensive care unit.
