Study Summary

Non-convulsive seizures (NCS) following cardiac arrest are common and are associated with worse neurologic outcomes and increased mortality. More prolonged seizures (status epilepticus) are associated with worse outcomes. Earlier diagnosis and treatment of seizures may lead to earlier termination of seizures and decreased seizure burden. This study will evaluate whether bedside intensive care unit (ICU) provider interpretation of a type of EEG called DSA EEG can be used by non-neurologists to diagnosis seizures more rapidly than continuous EEG's routinely read by neurologists.
