Abstract

Our initial clinical experiences with the "Oxford" ambulatory nontelemetry EEG monitoring shows that it is a useful and economical device for monitoring EEG and EKG activity in patients in a normal environment. Careful selection of the patient with possible seizure disorder and emphasis on temporal lobe recordings may give a higher degree of diagnostic yield in questionable cases of seizure. Further investigations utilizing this modality (ambulatory EEG monitoring) appears to be fully warranted. Further study, carefully controlled with regard to patient selection, age, chief complaint and previous EEG findings is currently underway at the Neurological Institute, Inc.
