Evaluation of Seizure-like Episodes in Survivors of Moderate and Severe Traumatic Brain Injury

Abstract

VEEG is a useful procedure in the evaluation of TBI survivors with spells. The yield of diagnoses that may alter treatment is substantial. Additionally, mesial temporal sclerosis is associated with TBI. Given the variety of seizure types found in survivors of moderate-to-severe TBI, obtaining specific diagnosis of seizure type by VEEG monitoring impacts treatment options.
