Application of an Amplitude-integrated EEG Monitor (Cerebral Function Monitor) to Neonates
Amplitude-integrated EEG (aEEG) is an easily accessible technique to monitor the electrocortical activity in preterm and term infants in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). This method was first used to monitor newborns after asphyxia, providing information about future neurological outcomes. The aEEG is also helpful to select newborns who benefit from cooling. The aEEG monitoring of preterm...
متن کاملDelayed cyclic activity development on early amplitude-integrated EEG in the preterm infant with brain lesions.
BACKGROUND Maturation of amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram (aEEG) activity is influenced by both gestational age (GA) and postmenstrual age. It is not fully known how this process is influenced by cerebral lesions. OBJECTIVE To compare early aEEG developmental changes between preterm newborns with different degrees of cerebral lesions on cranial ultrasound (cUS). METHODS Prospective...
متن کاملEarly single-channel aEEG/EEG predicts outcome in very preterm infants
AIM To characterize early amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram (aEEG) and single-channel EEG (aEEG/EEG) in very preterm (VPT) infants for prediction of long-term outcome. PATIENTS Forty-nine infants with median (range) gestational age of 25 (22-30) weeks. METHODS Amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram/EEG recorded during the first 72 h and analysed over 0-12, 12-24, 24-48 and 48-72 ...
متن کاملEarly amplitude-integrated electroencephalography predicts brain injury and neurological outcome in very preterm infants
Early amplitude-integrated electroencephalography (aEEG) has been widely used in term infants with brain injury to predict neurodevelopmental outcomes; however, the prognostic value of early aEEG in preterm infants is unclear. We evaluated how well early aEEG could predict brain damage and long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes in very preterm infants compared with brain imaging assessments. We ...
متن کاملThe amplitude-integrated EEG (aEEG)in the early prediction of outcome in the very preterm newborn
Amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram (aEEG) is a readily available and practical tool for the assessment of time-compressed electroencephalogram (EEG) trend at the bedside. Its interpretation and its learnability are considerably easier compared to those of conventional EEG. For those reasons, aEEG is now a daily part of clinical surveillance for continuous brain function monitoring of cri...
