ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the role of video electroencephalogram (VEEG) versus regular electroencephalogram (REEG) in the diagnosis of epilepsy and localization of origin of epileptic discharge in children through a comparative analysis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 223 children with clinical paroxysmal symptoms in the past and suspected epilepsy. VEEG and REEG were compared from the aspects of monitoring of clinical seizures, interictal epileptiform discharge (IED), localization of the origin of IED, and identification of non-epileptic seizures, and the detection rate of IED during awakening and sleep stages was also compared.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Compared with REEG, VEEG had significantly higher detection rates of IED and synchronous clinical seizures in children with epileptiform discharge (P<0.01). Of all children, 86 were diagnosed with epilepsy, 78 were diagnosed with epilepsy syndrome, 31 were diagnosed with non-epileptic seizures, and 81 had a definite location of the origin of epileptic discharge according to the VEEG. The detection rate of IED in the sleep stage was higher than that in the awakening stage (46% vs 13.2%; P<0.01), and IED was mainly detected in the NREM I-II stages according to the VEEG.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>VEEG has a significantly better performance than REEG in the diagnosis and localization of epilepsy in children and has a high value in clinical practice.</p>
