Bedside3
Recent technologic advances have promoted the use of amplitude integrated EEG (aEEG) to offer an accessible tool for bedside continuous cerebral monitoring. (medscape.com)
aEEG is a streamlined diagnostic technology that offers an accessible way to monitor neonate electrocortical activity at the bedside. (natus.com)
aEEG is extremely useful in the NICU because it delivers information to the NICU staff right at the bedside, providing a simplified yet meaningful visual display of a neonate's brain activity. (natus.com)
Outcomes2
aEEG is especially useful for detecting subclinical seizures and for providing data on sleep/waking cycles, two important predictors of health outcomes during the perinatal period. (natus.com)
aEEG provides fast, reliable data that can diagnose HIE quickly, giving NICU staff time to react and improve health outcomes. (natus.com)
Seizures2
Seizures are an important indicator of potential central nervous system diseases, and data from aEEG offers a pathway for neonatologists to diagnose conditions earlier and more accurately. (natus.com)
Bridging the gap between routine scalp EEG and in-patient video EEG monitoring, aEEG has evolved to provide cost-effective, high-yield, high-tech recording for evaluation of epilepsy diagnoses, nonepileptic attacks, quantification of seizures or epileptiform burden, and other issues requiring extended EEG observation for paroxysmal neurological events in any environment.
