Diagnostic value of EEG after a first unprovoked seizure in adults – A population-based study
The yield of EEG recorded with a longer latency after a first unprovoked seizure in adults was low. However, epileptiform activity highly predicted seizure recurrence and our results suggest that epileptiform activity on EEG could be explored further as a biomarker for defining epilepsy already after a first seizure.
