A new study has identified certain characteristics in the electroencephalograph (EEG) of critically ill patients that are associated with an increased risk for seizures. The researchers, from the ...

Epilepsy is a neurological condition characterised by recurrent episodes of seizures. Most cases of epilepsy do not have a clear cause. The primary pathogenesis of many forms of epilepsy is an ...

In hospital intensive care units, neurologists often use a simple scorecard to quickly evaluate a critically ill patient's likelihood of having a brain-damaging seizure so they can prevent it. The ...

For temporal similarity, intracranial EEG from both canines and humans exhibits large fluctuations during epileptic seizures, indicating the transferability of time-domain features across species. For ...

Pyramidal graphs resulting from statistical analyses of EEG recordings can improve our understanding of epileptic seizures. A statistical approach squeezes more detailed information out of a current ...

Many different mechanisms trigger seizures, and the spectrum of triggers is unique and specific to each individual. No universal pre-seizure signature exists for all patients with epilepsy, so pooling ...
