Abstract

This book aims to simplify the complex interpretation of neonatal electroencephalography (EEG), focusing on key patterns essential for the prevention and treatment of brain damages. With the physiological immaturity of the central nervous system in neonates, identifying brain conditions can be challenging. However, neonatal EEG, with its excellent temporal resolution, offers a real-time window into the brain functioning, making it an invaluable bedside tool. To help readers deepen their understanding, the book provides a comprehensive collection of normal and abnormal EEGs samples, systematically categorized by postmenstrual age. Each case is accompanied by detailed observations and unique methods of interpretation, such as identifying abnormalities related to the timing of brain injuries. The book is organized into six sections: Introduction, Normal EEG patterns, Abnormal EEG patterns, Neonatal seizures, aEEG, and Practical application of neonatal EEG in clinical settings. This book is highly recommended for all neonatologists and pediatric neurologists dedicated to ensuring the intact survival and optimal neurodevelopment for high-risk newborns. It is also a valuable book for pediatricians, neurophysiologists, EEG technicians, residents, and NICU nurses, and other healthcare professionals involved in the care and follow-up of newborns discharged from the NICU. This edition, the original published in Japanese, was translated with the assistance of machine translation, and then underwent thorough revision, editing, and verification by the authors to ensure accuracy and clarity.
