But the outcome of these patients depends on the different etiology. A total of 256 cases of video EEG recordings were analyzed in order to summarize the etiology and outcome of burst suppression. The results showed that some patients in all 17 cases of burst suppression showed EEG improvement. The etiology was the dominant factor in long term outcome. It was suggested that effective video EEG monitoring is helpful for etiologic study and prognosis evaluation.展开更多

Meanwhile, dynamic ApEn shows consistent change of EEG signal with discharges of epileptic waves inside. These results suggest that ApEn may be a useful tool for automatic recognition and detection of epileptic activity and for understanding epileptogenic mechanism.展开更多
