VIDAURRE, Jorge. Convulsiones neonatales: Diagnóstico clínico y electroencefalográfico. Medicina (B. Aires) [online]. 2018, vol.78, suppl.2, pp.25-29. ISSN 0025-7680.

Neonatal seizures are common expression of acute brain injury in the perinatal period and could potentiate the degree of neuronal injury. The majority of events are electroencephalographic and the clinical seizures can be subtle and difficult to identify by medical personnel. Neonatal seizures are usually short and frequent at onset and have a tendency to subside after a short period. Continuous video-EEG monitoring is the gold standard to detect seizures, but amplitude integrated EEG is a useful tool when conventional EEG is not available. EEG monitoring is important not only to monitor frequency and duration of seizures but to provide important prognostic information.
