Remote EEG Device for Identification of Risk for Neonatal Seizures

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to pilot the use of a remote electroencephalography (EEG) tool in neonates who are at increased risk for seizure. This will be used to assess the need for initiation of formal EEG, as well as, the need to escalate care in at risk neonates. This will be trialed in neonates who are demonstrating signs at birth of mild neonatal encephalopathy, as determined clinically by the neonatologist.
