EEG semester 1 102-2 Questions With
Solutions
What is the primary function of the Frontal Lobe? Movement
What is the primary function of the Parietal Lobe? Sensation
What is the primary function of the Temporal Lobe? Auditory
The Occipital Lobe is responsible for? Vision
Electrode Impedance Measured after electrodes are applied
Artifact recorded during an EEG but originates from a source outside the brain
Electrode Resistance Measured when the electrode is off the scalp
Surface Electrodes Disc shaped electrodes that record from the scalp at specific areas that
are measured using the International 10/20 System of Electrode Placement
, EEG semester 1 102-2 Questions With
Solutions
Subdermal Electrodes Needle Electrodes
Subdermal electrodes are used primarily in what type of patient? Comatose
Risks associated with Subdermal electrodes include: Infection
Which metal type is best when using DC recordings? Silver-silver chloride
Gold plated electrodes are used most frequently due to: easy of use, easy to clean, fewer
artifacts
Two advantages of using collodion when applying electrodes are? Collodion does not
melt off, Collodion provides a stronger hold with LTM's and difficult patients.
Give 3 advantages of paste application easier on the skin, less fumes than collodion, easier
to apply
