Amplitude integrated electroencephalography (aEEG), cerebral function monitoring (CFM) or continuous electroencephalogram (CEEG) is a technique for monitoring brain function in intensive care settings over longer periods of time than the traditional electroencephalogram (EEG), typically hours to days.

Amplitude-Integrated EEG, also known as cerebral function monitoring, is a bedside method that uses a single-channel or duo-channel EEG with selective frequency filtering to record the amplitude of the signal.

Amplitude-integrated electroencephalography (aEEG) is a bedside neurophysiology tool that uses a limited number of channels to record raw EEG signal that is then filtered, rectified, processed, and displayed on a semilogarithmic amplitude and time-compressed scale (Figure 1).

1. Understand the amplitude-integrated electroencephalography (aEEG) method and its utility and limitations. 2. Classify and interpret typical aEEG background patterns. 3. Identify epileptic seizure activity in the aEEG. 4. Describe features in the aEEG recording that are associated with prognosis. Introduction

Amplitude-integrated EEG (aEEG) is an easily accessible technique to monitor the electrocortical activity in preterm and term infants in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). This method was first used to monitor newborns after asphyxia, providing …

2021年4月1日 · The evaluation of aEEG should be performed on the interhemispheric trace (P3-P4), ensuring to have a correct inter-electrode distance, low impedances, and no significant interfering biological artifacts as muscle activity and high frequency oscillation may affect the lower margin and cause the so called drift of the baseline. aEEG findings ...

This course is designed to help clinicians understand the technology behind the aEEG trace, in order to help them with interpreting the different patterns obtained during monitoring. The course will assist the clinician in understanding: Technology utilised in aEEG; Number of channels that can be acquired in limited channel monitoring

2010年9月29日 · Recognizing the need for neurological monitoring in critically ill neonates, neonatologists and neurologists are becoming more familiar and comfortable with the use of amplitude-integrated...

2025年3月5日 · The process for displaying an aEEG trace is illustrated in Figs. 18.1 and 18.2. Initially, to remove artifacts efficiently, a filter is applied to the EEG components to extract frequencies of 2–15 Hz (filtering). The filtered waveform is then processed around a reference line and expressed in absolute values (rectification).

2017年4月1日 · Amplitude integrated electroencephalography (aEEG) is produced by cerebral function monitors (CFM), and is increasingly used in neonates following research into hypothermia for hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy in term infants.
