EEG Monitoring in Patients with Multiple Types of Intracranial Hemorrhages: Indications, findings, and recent advances
Event Details
Course introduction: Dr. Hirsch will review when to obtain EEG monitoring in patients with intraparenchymal, subarachnoid and other intracranial hemorrhages, including for the detection of seizures and delayed cerebral ischemia.
Event Details
Course introduction:
Dr. Hirsch will review when to obtain EEG monitoring in patients with intraparenchymal, subarachnoid and other intracranial hemorrhages, including for the detection of seizures and delayed cerebral ischemia. He will also discuss how to describe the EEG patterns and manage nonconvulsive seizures and controversial patterns such as the ictal-interictal continuum. This will include a brief overview of the new 2021 American Clinical Neurophysiology Society Critical Care EEG Terminology. There will be ample time for questions and answers.
Course Objectives:
- Know when to order EEG monitoring, why to do so, and when to stop monitoring in patients with intracranial hemorrhages of all types.
- Understand how EEG can help detect seizures and how it can help detect delayed cerebral ischemia in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage.
- Know how to apply the new 2021 American Clinical Neurophysiology Society Critical Care EEG Terminology for rhythmic and periodic patterns including electorgraphic seizures and the ictal-interictal continuum.
CE Credits:
This course is approved for 1.0 Contact Hour CEC by ASET – The Neurodiagnostic Society

He is founder and former chair of the Critical Care EEG Monitoring Research Consortium, which now includes more than 50 centers, and co-chair of the medical advisory board of the NORSE Institute. He has been an active researcher throughout his career, having published more than 200 peer-reviewed manuscripts and more than 100 reviews, editorials or book chapters on topics including status epilepticus, all aspects of EEG including intracranial recordings and brain monitoring in the critically ill, brain stimulation, epilepsy surgery, seizure clusters, rescue medications, sudden death in epilepsy (SUDEP), and anti-seizure medication use. He has won multiple teaching awards and is co-author of the first-ever atlas on EEG in critical care.
