INTRODUCTION Critical Care Continuous EEG (CCEEG) is a common procedure to monitor brain function in patients with altered mental status in intensive care units. There is significant variability in patient populations undergoing CCEEG and in technical specifications for CCEEG performance.

متن کاملNonconvulsive status epilepticus: the encephalopathic pediatric patient.
OBJECTIVE A high prevalence of nonconvulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) has been reported in critically ill adults and neonates. Recent prospective pediatric studies focus on critically ill children and show wide variability in the frequency of NCSE. This study examines prevalence of pediatric NCSE regardless of inpatient setting and retrospectively identifies risk factors indicating a need for ...
متن کاملSimilarity of lateralized rhythmic delta activity to periodic lateralized epileptiform discharges in critically ill patients.
IMPORTANCE The increasing use of continuous electroencephalography (EEG) monitoring in the intensive care unit has led to recognition of new EEG patterns that are of unclear or unknown significance. OBJECTIVE To describe an EEG pattern, lateralized rhythmic delta activity (LRDA), encountered in critically ill subjects and determine its clinical significance in this setting. DESIGN, SETTING, A...
متن کاملPharmacokinetics Alterations of Midazolam Infusion versus Bolus Administration in Mechanically Ventilated Critically Ill Patients
There is no randomized study carried out in order to compare their pharmacokinetic parameters although midazolam, as a sedative, has been widely administered via continuous infusion as well as intermittent bolus doses in mechanically ventilated critically ill patients. We prospectively investigated the effect of these two principal methods on pharmacokinetic parameters in 23 of mentioned patien...
