Özet

Background and aim Seizure-related visits are common in the emergency department (ED) but the clinical situations for ordering emergency electroencephalography (EEG) are unclear. The aim of this study is to identify which clinical conditions meet with the pathological EEG and whether patient management is changed by abnormal results.
