Abstract:Amplitude integrated EEG (aEEG) is derived from limited channels (usually P3-P4 or C3-P3,C4-P4) and is filtered,rectified and time-compressed to serve as a real-time,noninvasive,bedside cerebral function monitoring.It's simple application and interpretation has resulted in increasing use in neonatal intensive care units across the world.Current evidence demonstrates that aEEG is useful to monitor cerebral background activity,diagnose and treat seizures and predict neurodevelopmental outcomes for preterm and term infants.Validation investigation with full array EEG have shown reliable results in interpretation of cerebral electric background and electrographie seizures,especially when used with the simultaneously displayed raw EEG trace.
