Event Details
Course introduction:
Patients with drug-resistant epilepsy become surgical candidates. When the epileptogenic focus is unclear, further diagnostic testing is required to identify regions of interest that are addressed with surgical intervention. In this webinar, we discuss the utility, preoperative planning, surgical steps and future outlook of stereo-electroencephalography (SEEG).
Learning Objectives:
At the conclusion of this eSeminar the participants will be able to:
- Understand patient selection for stereo EEG
- Understand pre-operative planning of stereo EEG and coverage of regions of interest
- Understand surgical process and techniques of stereo EEG
This course is approved for 1.0 CEC Contact hour by ASET – The Neurodiagnostic Society

Event Details
Course introduction:
Intracranial pressure (ICP) remains an important marker when caring for severely brain-injured patients. Guidelines suggest monitoring patients with elevated ICP with either an external ventricular drain (EVD) or an intraparenchymal monitor. Monitoring ICP by either method is a nursing responsibility. Do we truly understand how we are measuring ICP and how to capture the correct value to maximize patient care? Join experts Linda Littlejohns and DaiWai Olson for a real talk on what we think we know and what we should know.
Learning Objectives:
At the conclusion of this eSeminar the participants will be able to:
- Define intracranial pressure.
- Discuss monitoring ICP with an intraparenchymal catheter.
- Discuss monitoring ICP with an external ventricular drain.
- Evaluate ICP best practices.
Natus Medical Incorporated is a provider approved by the California Board of Registered Nursing.
Provider Number 16614 for 1.0 contact hour.

Event Details
Course introduction:
Adult and Paediatric EMG share many features in common. Both use similar equipment and consumables and base their examination on the same fundamental neurophysiological principles. There the similarities end, with crucially important differences relating to the patients themselves and to the range of pathologies to which they are susceptible. If these are not taken into consideration a distressing experience for both patients and Electromyographers may result and lead to the EMG failing to realise its full diagnostic potential. In this lecture these important factors are going to be detailed and advice given how to ensure a successful examination.
Learning Objectives:
At the conclusion of this eSeminar the participants will be able to:
- Important differences between Paediatric and Adult EMG
- How to approach children in a clinical setting
- How the range of paediatric neuromuscular pathologies influences EMG techniques
- Where to source normative data
This eSeminar is valid for 1.0 Hour of CEC approved by AAET– The American Association of Electrodiagnostic Technologists

Dr. Matthew Pitt
Dr. Matthew Pitt
M.D.
Dr. Matthew Pitt retired from Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children in December 2019 after a nearly 30 year career dedicated to paediatric EMG. He was co-author to over 70 full peer reviewed papers, 12 Chapters, and innumerable conferences presentations. He wrote Paediatric EMG, the first book dedicated to the subject published by Oxford University Press in 2017. He was the founder of the biannual international congresses on Paediatric EMG begun in 1997 with the 13th meeting taking place at La Baule, France in November 2023. He has lectured all over the world and set up a Paediatric EMG service in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Dr. Pitt is a recognized world expert in the technique of SPACE, an adaptation of stimulated single fiber EMG used in the diagnosis of childhood myasthenic conditions. At the time of his retirement over 800 children were examined per year, either personally or under his personal supervision. He trained nearly all trainee consultants in the UK as well as visiting fellows from all over the world. He has a close relationship with the French speaking EMG societies often presenting at their congresses. He continues to do clinics both in Paediatrics and Adults and receives invitations to speak at International Clinical Neurophysiological societies.

Course introduction:
This last eSeminar of a two-part series presented by Dr. Sanjeev Nandedkar will summarize the new features of NCS Insight software. This presentation will focus on the improvements in autonomic testing programs that make testing and data editing much easier. Dr. Nandedkar will conclude by demonstrating the principles of the so-called ‘QRS-triggered SEP’ test that is aimed at reducing artifacts in this test thus improving signal quality.
Course Objectives:
-
- How to analyze EMG signals off-line
- Repetitive nerve stimulation: Low, high, conditioning and other modalities
- Single fiber EMG: Multi-peak analysis
- QRS Triggered SEP
This course is approved for a total of 1.0 CEC hour by AAET– The American Association of Electrodiagnostic Technologists

Event Details
Course introduction:
The lecture showcases how Home Video Telemetry (HVET) has evolved since its conception and how it proved to be resilient in the COVID-19 pandemic, which was unforeseen. HVET has become the preferred method for diagnostic video EEG telemetry, in particular for children and their families at our center.
