This book could serve as an excellent study book for technologists to assist with waveform learning and studies. It is a good visual aid for those who must see what it may look like visually along with a description. I would recommend this book as a valuable resource in learning waveforms and reviewing knowledge of waveforms, especially the normal or benign variants that seem to give those in this field the most difficulty in remembering."--Cyndi Miller, R. EEG T., CNIM, R.NCS.T., The Neurodiagnostic Journal. "...Large variety of subjects, good diagrams, thoroughly researched data....

The book would make a good addition to a departmental or personal library." --American Journal of Electroneurodiagnostic Technology. "...[H]elpful for neurology residents and fellows who are learning EEG interpretation or who need to make decisions while on call at the hospital." --Doody's Reviews. [A] first class resource of EEG Interpretation... highly recommended trusted resource for any health care professional dealing with patients who need an EEG investigation and particularly in epilepsies. Consistently formatted and packed with practical tips, this handbook is a highly useful tool for residents, fellows, clinicians, and neurophysiology technologists who are learning EEG interpretation or who need to make decisions while on call at the hospital and look for quick and reliable EEG information, regardless of specialty or level of training.--C. P. Panayiotopoulos, Department of Clinical Neurophysiology and Epilepsies, St. Thomas' Hospital, Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology. A trusted resource for anyone involved in EEG interpretation, this compact handbook is designed for on-the-go reference. Covering the essential components of EEG in clinical practice, the book provides graphic examples of classic EEG presentations with essential text points of critical information to enhance reading skills to aid in improving patient outcomes. Authored by prominent experts in clinical neurophysiology, this second edition is updated to reflect current advances in ICU and intraoperative monitoring and includes new chapters on polysomnography, status epilepticus, and pediatric EEG. The Handbook of EEG Interpretation, Second Edition fits in a lab coat pocket to facilitate immediate information retrieval during bedside, OR, ER, and ICU EEG interpretation. It is divided into eight sections that cover all major EEG topics including normal and normal variants, epileptiform and nonepileptiform abnormalities, seizures and status epilepticus, ICU EEG, sleep, and intraoperative monitoring. Each chapter highlights the principal challenges involved with a particular type of EEG interpretation. Consistently formatted and packed with practical tips, this handbook is a highly useful tool for residents, fellows, clinicians, and neurophysiology technologists looking for quick and reliable EEG information, regardless of specialty or level of training.
