Summary

The current project undertakes a prospective multicentre randomised controlled trial to evaluate whether full or continuous electroencephalography (cEEG) is superior to amplitude-integrated electroencephalography (aEEG) in the real time evaluation and diagnosis of neonatal seizures and in reducing time to treatment. At-risk new-born infants will be recruited on the participating neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) by trained specialist staff and will have 24 hours of EEG monitoring.

Conditions

  • Neonatal Seizures

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Group B: aEEG with concurrent multichannel (full) continuous cEEG review by clinical neurophysiology

In group B, the standart-care equivalent aEEG review is undertaken by NICU staff via a 2-channel display. In addition to the standard care, concurrent full EEG is reviewed remotely with regular feedback by a specialist trained clinical neurophysiologist. The clinical neurophysiology reports only on seizure burden, no information or direction is provided regarding clinical management.
