As the population ages, technology improves, intensive care
medicine expands and neurocritical care advances, the use of EEG
monitoring in the critically ill is becoming increasingly
important.

This atlas is a comprehensive yet accessible introduction to the
uses of EEG monitoring in the critical care setting. It includes
basic EEG patterns seen in encephalopathy, both specific and
non-specific, nonconvulsive seizures, periodic EEG patterns, and
controversial patterns on the ictal-interictal continuum.
Confusing artefacts, including ones that mimic seizures, are shown
and explained, and the new standardized nomenclature for these
patterns is included.

The Atlas of EEG in Critical Care explains the principles
of technique and interpretation of recordings and discusses the
techniques of data management, and 'trending' central to long-term
monitoring. It demonstrates applications in multi-modal monitoring,
correlating with new techniques such as microdialysis, and features
superb illustrations of commonly observed neurologic events,
including seizures, hemorrhagic stroke and ischaemia.

This atlas is written for practitioners, fellows and residents
in critical care medicine, neurology, epilepsy and clinical
neurophysiology, and is essential reading for anyone getting
involved in EEG monitoring in the intensive care unit.

Dr. Hirsch completed medical school and internship at Yale University. He was resident and chief resident at the Neurological Institute of New York where he also completed a two-year fellowship in Epilepsy/EEG. He is currently Associate Clinical Professor of Neurology at Columbia University and Director of the Continuous EEG Monitoring Program at New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University Medical Center. His primary interest is providing clinical care for adolescents and adults with epilepsy, including those who are potential candidates for epilepsy surgery and in diagnosing "funny spells". His research interests include effectiveness and tolerability of antiepileptic drugs, brain monitoring in the critically ill, brain stimulation for epilepsy, and cardiac effects of seizures. Dr. Brenner has been on the faculty at the University of Pittsburgh since 1983, and is now clinical professor of neurology and psychiatry. He has authored over 70 publications and was the medical editor of the American Journal of Electroneurodiagnostic Technology (2003-2006). He is a member of the American Academy of Neurology (AAN), American Clinical Neurophysiology Society (ACNS), and the American Epilepsy Society (AES). He was director of the clinical EEG course for the AAN from 1991 through 1995 and co-director of the annual AES course in 2001. He was director of clinical EEG courses for the ACNS from 2001-2003. He was president of the ACNS (2005-2006) and recently completed EEG on DVD-Adult: An Interactive Reading Session.

Index.

"We highly recommend this atlas to all health care providers
interpreting electroencephalograms of critically ill patients or
managing critically ill patients who are undergoing EEG
monitoring." (Epilepsy & Behavior, 6 October 2010)



"This unique atlas provides a reasonably comprehensive overview
of common and controversial EEG patterns in the ICU, and is laden
with practical pearls of interpretation. It should serve the
interested intensivist well, and is an excellent starting point for
neurologists and neurosurgeons interested in the evolving fields of
neurocritical care and EEG monitoring." (Canadian Journal of
Neurological Sciences, November 2010)
