RELATION BETWEEN ELECTROGRAPHIC SEIZURES DETECTED BY AMPLITUDE-INTEGRATED EEG AND SHORT-TERM OUTCOMES AFTER TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY IN CHILDREN

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in children. After TBI, the vulnerable to additional injuries (secondary injuries) because disrupts normal autoregulatory defense mechanisms. These secondary play crucial role patient prognosis. Posttraumatic seizures are an important leading further damage injured brain. Continuous monitoring by electroencephalography (EEG) can detect both clinical subclinical seizure. This will lead early treatment prevention damage.
