EEG interpretation is a critical skill for most practicing neurologists, as well as for an increasing number of specialists in other practice settings. Handbook of EEG Interpretation, the first illustrated, portable handbook to discuss all aspects of clinical neurophysiology, is an essential means of quick reference for anyone involved in EEG interpretation.

Handbook of Continuous EEG Monitoring in the ICU addresses a wide range of technical and clinical issues involved in successfully monitoring critically ill patients to detect seizure activity and prevent serious nervous system impairment. Divided into five sections, the handbook covers image acquisition and other technical considerations, clinical indications, EEG interpretation, treatment, and practical and administrative concerns such as billing and coding and report generation. Written by leading international experts the chapters are brief and formatted for maximum utility with bulleted text, pearls, and take-home points to reinforce key information. Full-page examples of routine and quantitative EEG findings hone interpretive understanding and build skills for detecting clinically significant EEG changes in the ICU.
