R.EEG.T STUDY GUIDE EXAM 2025
BRAND NEW ACTUAL EXAM
EEG finding most often associated with neonatal seizures due
to interventricualar hemorrhage, leukomalacia, infarcts - correct
answer- positive central or temporal sharp waves
EEG finding most often associated with postnatal 5th day
seizures - correct answer- theta pointu alternant
EEG finding most often associated with postnatal early infantile
epileptic encephalopathy (EIEE) or neonatal myoclonic
encephalopathy - correct answer- burst suppression
EEG finding most often associated with postnatal infantile
spasms - correct answer- hypsarrhythmia
EEG finding most often associated with Lennox-Gastaut
Syndrome - correct answer- 1 to 2 second spike and wave
complexes
, Page | 2
EEG finding most often associated with Absence seizures or
Primary Generalized epilepsy - correct answer- regular 3/sec
spike and wave complexes bilaterally synchronous
EEG finding most often associated with Generalized tonic-
clonic seizures - correct answer- fast activity, occasional spike
and wave
EEG finding most often associated with myoclonic, atonic
seizures - correct answer- irregular 3/sec spike and wave
complexes
EEG findings most often associated with benign epilepsy of
childhood - correct answer- central sharp waves
EEG finding most often associated with Benign occipital
epilepsy - correct answer- occipital sharp waves
EEG finding most often associated with versive or sensory
seizures - correct answer- parietal sharp waves
, Page | 3
EEG finding most often associated with Focal motor or
Jacksonian seizures - correct answer- frontocentral sharp
waves
EEG finding most often associated with complex partial
seizures - correct answer- temporal lobe sharp waves,
especially from anterior temporal area
EEG finding most often associated with a CVA or TIA of carotid
origin - correct answer- frontal and temporal slow waves, more
often on the left
EEG finding most often associated with a CVA or TIA of
vertebrobasilar origin - correct answer- temporal and occipital
slow waves
EEG finding most often associated with Hemorrhage - correct
answer- often sharp waves or spikes, in addition to slow waves
EEG finding most often associated with Emboli - correct
answer- often in location, at times periodic lateralized
Epileptiform discharges (PLEDs)
, Page | 4
EEG finding most often associated with Subdural Hematoma -
correct answer- slow waves, usually appearing after depression
of normal rhythms
EEG finding most often associated with Hepatic (renal) Coma -
correct answer- triphasic waves
EEG finding most often associated with Subacute Sclerosing
Panencephalitis (SSPE) - correct answer- periodic bursts every
4 to 6 seconds
EEG finding most often associated with Herpes Simplex
Encephalitis - correct answer- repetitive discharge such as
PLED on the temporal lobe
EEG finding most often associated with Anoxic Encephalopathy
- correct answer- may show slow EEG activity or may progress
to patterns such as alpha coma and burst suppression
EEG finding most often associated with Creutzfeldt-Jakob
disease - correct answer- initially the EEG shows slower than
normal activity with loss of normal background. with disease
