Electroencephalography (EEG) is an important part of the evaluation of many disorders in infants and children, including seizures and spells. This chapter identifies abnormal epileptiform patterns seen in infants and children and correlates these patterns to specific seizure types and electroclinical syndromes. Generalized discharge (associated with genetic generalized epilepsies as well as epileptic encephalopathies), focal discharge (associated with benign focal epilepsies as well as lesional epilepsies), and hypsarrhythmia are discussed. Additionally, abnormal, but non-epileptiform patterns—including periodic patterns, triphasic waves, intermittent rhythmic delta activity, suppression, asymmetry, and slowing—are reviewed. Specific etiologies associated with various abnormalities on pediatric EEG are identified.

In Infants And Children

The effectiveness of amplification for infants and children can be mediated by how much the child uses the device. Existing research suggests that establishing hearing aid use can be challenging. A wide range of factors can influence hearing aid use in children, including the child's age, degree of hearing loss, and socioeconomic status. Audiological interventions, including using validated prescriptive approaches and verification, performing on-going training and orientation, and communicating with caregivers about hearing aid use can also increase hearing aid use by infants and children. Case examples are used to highlight the factors that influence hearing aid use. Potential management strategies and future research needs are also discussed.
