Multicenter StudyProspective assessment and validation of rhythmic and periodic pattern detection in NeuroTrend: A new approach for screening continuous EEG in the intensive care unit.
NeuroTrend is a computational method that analyzes long-term scalp EEGs in the ICU according to ACNS standardized critical care EEG terminology (CCET) including electrographic seizures. At present, it attempts to become a screening aid for continuous EEG (cEEG) recordings in the ICU to facilitate the review process and optimize resources. ⋯ NeuroTrend might be a suitable screening tool for cEEG in the ICU and has the potential to raise efficiency of long-term EEG monitoring in the ICU. At this stage, pattern localization and differentiation between RDA and general slowing need improvement. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled "Status Epilepticus".
