Early focal electroencephalogram and neuroimaging findings predict epilepsy development after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage

Seizures are a common complication of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in both acute and late stages: 10-20 % acute symptomatic seizures, 12-25 % epilepsy rate at five years. Our aim was to identify early electroencephalogram (EEG) and computed tomography (CT) findings that could predict long-term epilepsy after SAH.
