Cotside EEG monitoring using computerised spectral analysis.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The application and interpretation of computerised spectral analysis of the neonatal electroencephalogram (EEG) using the Neuroscience Berg Fourier Analyser (BFA) is described. Recordings are immediately available at the cotside. Electrophysiological changes can be recognised by individuals with no previous experience in EEG technology. The compact nature of the analysis allows long periods of recording to be viewed within minutes. In addition to the unequivocal demonstration of both clinical and subclinical seizures, the BFA is useful in the evaluation of interseizure activity--that is, disturbance of sleep patterns, electrical output, and hemisphere asymmetry.

EEG spectral power alternation & learning disability in rats exposure to lead through prenatal developing age
Introduction: Lead intoxication in children has been associated with neurodevelopment disabilities that may result in motor and cognitive impairment. The aim of the present study is to evaluate in long term effects of prenatal exposure to low-level Pb2+ on learning, memory and EEG. Materials & Methods: Rat pregnant were exposed to distilled water or 0.05, 0.1, 0.2 % of Pb-acetate in the dr...

Perinatal encephalopathy, is an important cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality. The electroencephalogram (EEG) is a critical diagnostic tool for detecting brain injury shortly after birth. In clinical practice, longitudinal bed-side monitoring is performed by the amplitude-integrated EEG (aEEG), which is a time-compressed version of the EEG measured using four electrodes. Perinatal encepha...
متن کاملAL . : ESTIMATING ALERTNESS FORM THE EEG POWER SPECTRUM 1 Estimating Alertness from the EEG
In tasks requiring sustained attention, human alertness varies on a minute time scale. This can have serious consequences in occupations ranging from air traac control to monitoring of nuclear power plants. Changes in the electroencephalographic (EEG) power spectrum accompany these uctuations in the level of alertness, as assessed by measuring simultaneous changes in EEG and performance on an a...

Continuous four hours EEG (electroencephalogram) recordings and its power spectrum analysis using fast fourier transform (FFT) in urethane anesthetized male Charles Foster rats were performed in two groups: open brain injury and p-CPA (para-Chlorophenylalanine) pretreated before brain injury, respectively, and compared with the EEG power spectrum of control rats. The EEG power spectrum analysis...

Background: Epilepsy is a severe disorder of the central nervous system that predisposes the person to recurrent seizures. Fifty million people worldwide suffer from epilepsy; after Alzheimer’s and stroke, it is the third widespread nervous disorder.Objective: In this paper, an algorithm to detect the onset of epileptic seizures based on the analysis of brain electrical signals (EEG) has b...
