Introduction.
This study examines the utility of electroencephalography (EEG) in clinical decision making in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients in regards to the prescription of antiseizure medications.
Methods.
Patients were grouped as having positive EEG (+) for epileptiform activity or negative EEG (-).
These studies were no more than 30 minutes in length.
Patients’ charts were retrospectively reviewed for antiepileptic drug (AED) use before, during, and on discharge from AIS hospitalization.
Results.
Of the 509 patients meeting inclusion criteria, 24 (4.7%) had a positive EEG.
Patients did not significantly differ with respect to any demographic or baseline characteristics with the exception of prior history of seizure.
In the EEG- group, AEDs were discontinued in only 3.5% of patients.
In the EEG+ group, only 37.5% of patients had an initiation or change to their AED regimen within 36 hours of the study.
62.5% of the EEG+ group had a cortical stroke.
Significance.
Our results indicate that vascular neurologists are not using spot EEGs to routinely guide inpatient AED management.
EEGs may have greater utility in those with a prior history of seizures and cortical strokes.
Longer or continuous EEG monitoring may have better utility in the AIS population if there is clinical suspicion of seizure.
