EEG and delayed cerebral ischemia in SAH

Authors Design Diagnostic modality, clinical grade N Findings
Rivierez et al. [35] P CS Angio, HH I–V 151 Raw EEG D1 predicted D5 confirmed ischemia
Labar et al. [33] P CS Angio, HH I–V 11 Four cases qEEG changes preceded clin change
Vespa et al. [36] P CS Angio, HH I–V 32 Relative alpha variability: PPV 76 %, NPV 100 %; qEEG preceded other measures by 2 d
Claassen et al. [32] P CS DCI; HH III-V 34 >10 % decrease in alpha-delta-ratio: sens 100 %, specificity 76 %
Rathakrishnan et al. [34] P CS DCI, HH I–V 12 Mean alpha power: 67 % sens, 73 % spec for worsening, improvement 50 % sensitivity, 74 % specificity

PPV positive predictive value, NPV negative predictive value
