Clinical Utility of EEG in Diagnosing and Monitoring Epilepsy in Adults

Epilepsy is a common, chronic, complex group of neurological disorders. Worldwide, more than 50 million people have epilepsy, affecting humans of all ages, ethnicity, social background, and geographic location (Perucca et al., 2014a; England et al., 2012). It is characterized by an ongoing predisposition to recurrent seizures. Newer definitions of epilepsy include patients with reflex seizures, those with two or more unprovoked seizures greater than 24 hours apart, and high-risk individuals with a single seizure and at least a 60% likelihood of experiencing recurrent seizures over the ensuing 10 years as compared to the general population (Fisher et al., 2014).
