Digital EEG
Neuro-Electrophysiological Diagnostics: Digital EEG
Electroencephalography (EEG) is a non-invasive diagnostic procedure that measures and records electrical patterns produced by neurons in the brain cortex. Tapadia Diagnostic utilizes digital EEG systems with high-resolution amplifiers to identify abnormal brain rhythms, epileptiform discharges, and neurological conditions.
Clinical Indications for Digital EEG
Epilepsy & Seizure Disorders: Differentiating between focal and generalized seizures, classifying epilepsy syndromes, and monitoring anti-epileptic drug efficacy.
Unexplained Syncope & Loss of Consciousness: Investigating transient neurological deficits, blackouts, and fainting episodes.
Encephalopathy & Sleep Disorders: Evaluating metabolic brain dysfunction, toxic encephalopathy, and sleep architecture.
Provocative Maneuvers: Hyperventilation and photic stimulation protocols performed under expert technologist observation.
Patient Instructions for EEG Testing
Patients are advised to wash their hair thoroughly the night before and avoid hair oils, gels, or sprays to ensure optimal electrode conductivity. Take regular meals before testing to avoid hypoglycemia-related brain wave alterations.
