My brother's children have signs of epilepsy. In order to find out the situation, all kinds of examinations have been done. Because of the great harm of epilepsy, no matter what kind of examination, my brother is very careful. Let's take a look at the harm of children's EEG.

What kind of harm does child do electroencephalogram have

First of all: parents can rest assured that EEG will not do any harm to the child's body. Because there is electrical activity in the brain of normal people, EEG only records the spontaneous electrical activity of brain cells from the scalp, which will not harm the health of children, and the whole examination process will not be painful.

Secondly, it is easier to make EEG diagnosis for patients with typical symptoms, but it needs multiple or 24-hour dynamic EEG system examination for patients with atypical symptoms. At the same time, EEG examination can rule out such as syncope, migraine in children and other similar seizures.

Finally: surgical treatment can be considered for a small number of patients with intractable and intractable epilepsy, and the key of surgical treatment is to locate the epileptogenic foci preoperatively through advanced EEG.
