EEG Patterns: IEDs - What do they mean?

In this video, we dive deep into Interictal Epileptiform Discharges (IEDs)—transient events in the brain's electrical activity that stand out from the normal background rhythm. You'll learn about the different types of IEDs, including spikes, sharp waves, and polyspikes, and how they relate to epilepsy. We break down the critical details, from spike and sharp wave durations to their distinct appearances and the significance of negative polarity in EEG readings. Whether you're a healthcare professional, EEG tech, or someone interested in understanding epilepsy, this video provides a clear and concise overview of IEDs.

Key Topics:

- What are Interictal Epileptiform Discharges (IEDs)?
- Understanding spikes (20-70 ms) and sharp waves (70-200 ms)
- Polyspikes and their relation to specific epilepsy types
- EEG findings: cortical gyrus origin and negative polarity
