EEG, Awake and Sleep - Delhi
EEG
|
Also Known As:
The EEG test conducted during both awake and sleep states offers a more comprehensive assessment of brain activity. Brain wave patterns vary significantly between wakefulness and sleep, and certain neurological conditions only become apparent during specific stages of sleep. For example, some types of seizures are more likely to occur during sleep, and sleep disorders may be better understood when brain activity is monitored across both states. This test involves placing electrodes on the scalp to measure electrical activity, while video monitoring may also be included to capture physical symptoms that accompany changes in brain activity. The awake and sleep EEG is especially helpful in diagnosing sleep-related seizures, narcolepsy, or other disorders that affect brain function during the sleep-wake cycle. The combined analysis of both awake and sleep states provides a thorough understanding of how the brain functions under different conditions, aiding in more accurate diagnoses.

TAT Policy
The Turnaround Time (TAT) for a test depends on the following factors:
- Registration date and time
- Type of scan or test
- Scan time or sample collection time
Please note that in uncommon circumstances, TAT may be delayed due to the complexity of the test or reasons beyond our control. You will be informed about the estimated TAT at the time of registration or after completion of the test.
