Electroencephalography based delirium screening in acute supratentorial stroke
When EEG is used in clinical practice to support a delirium diagnosis in stroke patients, bihemispheric recordings are likely preferable over unilateral recordings. Slowing in the delta- or theta-frequency spectrum over the site of stroke may lead to false-positive results in single channel EEG based delirium scoring.
