Objective: To identify patients most likely to have seizures documented on continuous EEG (cEEG) monitoring and patients who require more prolonged cEEG to record the first seizure.
Methods: Five hundred seventy consecutive patients who underwent cEEG monitoring over a 6.5-year period were reviewed for the detection of subclinical seizures or evaluation of unexplained decrease in level of consciousness. Baseline demographic, clinical, and EEG findings were recorded and a multivariate logistic regression analysis performed to identify factors associated with 1) any EEG seizure activity and 2) first seizure detected after >24 hours of monitoring.
Results: Seizures were detected in 19% (n = 110) of patients who underwent cEEG monitoring; the seizures were exclusively nonconvulsive in 92% (n = 101) of these patients. Among patients with seizures, 89% (n = 98) were in intensive care units at the time …
