Article Snippet: To minimize healthcare personnel's exposure to high risk for COVID‐19 transmission patients, we have utilized an 8‐channel headband EEG system (8ch‐EEG), Ceribell rapid response EEG that can be quickly applied by personnel without having prior training as EEG technologists., We report our first findings from medically indicated EEG studies, performed predominantly using 8ch‐EEG, on admitted acutely ill COVID‐19 PUIs.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Examples of frontal sharp waves or spikes in EEGs of COVID‐19‐positive patients and encephalopathy. (A,B) Examples of 8ch‐EEG from a 65 y old man with no prior history of epilepsy presenting with delirium (A) and a 77 y old woman with history of epilepsy presenting with an episode of confusion, reminiscent of her old seizures (B). The prior epilepsy classification is unknown for this patient whose prior medical care was outside our hospital network. EEGs demonstrate frontal sharp waves bilateral (A) or frontal spikes right more than left (B). High pass filter 1 Hz, low pass filter 30 Hz. (C) Routine EEG of a 61 y old man with no prior history of epilepsy, who presented with fever, respiratory failure requiring intubation who manifested “20 second intervals of bilateral arm jerking with eyes rolling back” and “myoclonic seizure activity at the face and left arm” after taken off propofol. His EEG showed right frontal sharp waves. High pass filter 1 Hz, low pass filter 70 Hz. Scale bars indicate sensitivity and timescale. Horizontal bars indicate the times when epileptic activities are seen. ECGR‐ECGL: electrocardiogram channel
