Workshop Objectives
At the end of this workshop, audience will learn to:
- โRecognize normal maturational EEG patterns by gestational age.
- โDistinguish between normal variants and pathologic findings in neonatal EEG.
- โUnderstand the aEEG and cEEG markers and recording.
- โRecognize EEG signatures of common neonatal neurological disorders (e.g., HIE, hemorrhage, metabolic encephalopathies) and interpret burst suppression, discontinuity, and other pathological patterns with clinical context.
