Amplitude-integrated electroencephalography for seizure detection in newborn infants.
Seminars in Fetal & Neonatal Medicine 2018 June
The amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram (aEEG) is a filtered and compressed EEG trend that can be used for long-term monitoring of brain function in patients of all ages. aEEG is increasingly used in neonatal intensive care units since several studies have shown its utility in high-risk newborn infants. Main indications for aEEG monitoring include early evaluation of brain function after perinatal asphyxia and seizure detection. The aEEG is usually recorded from one or two channels derived from parietal, central, or frontal leads. Although the aEEG is very useful for identifying high-risk infants and infants with seizures, the compressed trend has limitations with regards to detection of individual seizures. However, modern monitors also display the corresponding EEG (aEEG/EEG), which increases the probability of detecting single brief seizures. For improved evaluation of electrocortical brain activity the aEEG/EEG should be assessed together with repeated conventional EEGs or multi-channel EEG monitoring in a multi-disciplinary team.
