[Automatic analysis of long-term EEG in epilepsy. First experiences with a new part-automatic analytic system (author's transl)].

A new equipment for automatic analysis of prolonged EEG derivations is demonstrated. Spikes, waves and SW-combinations are detected and counted separate; counted EEG signals are written with paper speed of 25 mm per sec. Results of a 3-channel-derivation with 1-channel-analysis are shown in a time compressed graphic demonstration. The method gives better information about pathological EEG-signals of one hour or more in epileptic patients, drug effects can be demonstrated easily, and detection of pathological EEG signals is simplified.
