Video-EEG (vEEG) was originally used in specialized centers as part of the evaluation for epilepsy surgery. It is now widely available and often utilized for other indications including: clarifying the nature of paroxysmal events, quantifying the frequency of seizures, and identifying the epilepsy syndrome. Ictal recordings can be obtained in children with refractory seizures during relatively brief studies (recordings lasting less than 24 h) in many circumstances. The information gleaned from an analysis of the ictal events can be very helpful in clarifying the true nature of the epilepsies. Several illustrative clinical cases will be briefly discussed to highlight these points.
视频脑电图（vEEG）最初在专业中心用于癫痫手术评估。现在它已广泛可用，并且常用于其他适应症，包括：明确阵发性事件的性质、量化癫痫发作频率以及识别癫痫综合征。在许多情况下，在相对较短的研究（记录持续时间少于24小时）期间，可以对难治性癫痫发作的儿童进行发作期记录。从发作期事件分析中收集到的信息对于明确癫痫的真正性质非常有帮助。将简要讨论几个具有说明性的临床病例以突出这些要点。
