This review describes the maturational features of the baseline electroencephalogram (EEG) in the neurologically healthy preterm infant. Features such as continuity, sleep state, synchrony and transient waveforms are described, even from extremely preterm infants and includes abundant illustrated examples. The physiological significance of these EEG features and their relationship to neurodevelopment are highlighted where known. This review also demonstrates the importance of multichannel conventional EEG monitoring for preterm infants as many of the features described are not apparent if limited channel EEG monitors are used.
This review aims to provide healthcare professionals in the neonatal intensive care unit with guidance on the more common normal maturational features seen in the EEG of preterm infants.
本综述描述了神经健康早产儿的基础脑电图 (EEG) 的成熟特征。描述了诸如连续性、睡眠状态、同步性和瞬态波形等特征，甚至包括早产儿的大量实例。在已知的情况下，强调了这些 EEG 特征的生理意义及其与神经发育的关系。本综述还表明了多通道常规 EEG 监测对早产儿的重要性，因为如果使用有限通道 EEG 监测器，许多描述的特征并不明显。
本综述旨在为新生儿重症监护病房的医护人员提供指导，介绍早产儿 EEG 中常见的正常成熟特征。
