COMPARISON OF VARIOUS EEG ELECTRODE PLACEMENT SYSTEMS TO DETECT EPILEPTIFORM ABNORMALITIES IN INFANTS
Background: Technical difficulties in placement of whole 10-20 electrode system is not uncommon in neonates and infants. Apart from the full channel many centers uses the modified and amplitude integrated EEG montages to identify seizures. Objective: Efficacy of standard, modified and amplitude i...

Background: Technical difficulties in placement of whole 10-20 electrode system is not uncommon in neonates and infants. Apart from the full channel many centers uses the modified and amplitude integrated EEG montages to identify seizures.
Objective: Efficacy of standard, modified and amplitude integrated EEG electrode placement in infants to detect epileptiform abnormalities.
Methods: All routine EEGs from June 2015 to April 2018 were taken. Age ≤ 2years at the time of recoding was the inclusion criteria. Digital EEG was performed according to standard 10-20 electrode placement system in all patients. Abnormal EEGs were reanalyzed in different montages like A) 21 electrodes- full channel, B) 10 electrodes- modified long distance and C)4 electrodes- (centro/parietal) respectively.
