Abstract
The role of autoimmune etiologies in the genesis of epilepsy and encephalitis has been recently discovered. Historically, infectious and to a lesser degree metabolic etiologies have also been implicated in convulsive and nonconvulsive seizures (NCS) and status epilepticus (SE). With the recent advances in and recommendations for continuous EEG (cEEG) monitoring, NCS and nonconvulsive SE (NCSE) are being increasingly detected in these conditions. It is imperative to diagnose abnormal movements that are associated with such disease states and to differentiate between epileptic and nonepileptic events. Hence, cEEG monitoring serves a vital role in spell characterization and identification of seizures and SE.
