Continuous EEG monitoring yield and non-convulsive seizure yield by monitoring strategy.
| Monitoring Strategy | A Number of patients meeting EEG monitoring indication during screening month |
B % with non-convulsive seizures reported in literature |
C Average number of patients with non-convulsive seizures C=B% of A |
D Average EEG monitoring duration (days) |
E Average EEG monitoring number of days E=A×D |
F EEG Monitoring Yielda F=C/E |
G Non-Convulsive Seizure Yieldb |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Prolonged-Targeted | 33 | 46%c | 15.2 | 3.2d | 106 | 0.14 | 100%c |
| Brief-Targeted | 33 | 43%c | 14.2 | 1e | 33 | 0.43 | 94%c |
EEG Monitoring Yield = Non-convulsive seizure patients detected per EEG monitoring day.
Non-convulsive seizure Yield = estimate of patients with non-convulsive seizures who would have non-convulsive seizures identified using this strategy based on published literature.
Reference 3. 46% of children undergoing EEG monitoring have non-convulsive seizures, and 100% are detected with 72 hours of monitoring. 43% of children undergoing EEG monitoring have non-convulsive seizures detected in the first 24 hours of monitoring, indicating 94% of children with non-convulsive seizures could be identified with 24 hours of monitoring.
Average duration of altered mental status from screening month data.
By definition, EEG monitoring duration is one day for the brief-targeted strategy.
