Recording neonatal EEG in the NICU has unique challenges. Infants are often connected to multiple electronic devices, which can produce various artifacts in the EEG. For accurate EEG interpretation, it is important to minimize such artifacts, including those arising from body movements, electrode problems, ECG contamination, alternating current (AC) disturbances, high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV), and nearby human activities. Since it is difficult to eliminate all artifacts, recognizing them is crucial. When feasible, simultaneous video recording can assist in identifying movement-related artifacts.

摘要

Recording neonatal EEG in the NICU has unique challenges. Infants are often connected to multiple electronic devices, which can produce various artifacts in the EEG. For accurate EEG interpretation, it is important to minimize such artifacts, including those arising from body movements, electrode problems, ECG contamination, alternating current (AC) disturbances, high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV), and nearby human activities. Since it is difficult to eliminate all artifacts, recognizing them is crucial. When feasible, simultaneous video recording can assist in identifying movement-related artifacts.
