NDT 2386 Lab for Neonatal/Pediatric EEG

Lab for Neonatal/Pediatric Electroencephalography will demonstrate recording neonatal and pediatric EEG electroencephalograms. Development of sleep-wake cycle, monitoring the EEG in neonatal and pediatric populations, and differential diagnosis based on polysomnographic variables.

Division: Health Sciences

Outcomes

  • This hands-on lab focuses on recording and analyzing neonatal EEGs, including the setup, electrode placement, and troubleshooting techniques specific to these populations. Students will practice identifying normal and abnormal EEG patterns, including age-appropriate developmental features and common abnormalities such as seizures and encephalopathies. Emphasis is placed on interpreting EEG data in clinical scenarios and understanding the impact of brain development on waveforms
