Based on the EEG shown below, how old is this patient?

A full-term (40 weeks gestational age) male had an uncomplicated delivery with good APGAR scores. However, the family has noticed unexplained episodes of tremulousness. Because of these abnormal movements, an EEG was ordered. Which of the following is the most accurate description of the findings shown in the epoch below?

What is the electrographic pattern seen best in the right temporal electrodes?

What is the state of the patient in the EEG shown below?

Which of the following is a necessary requirement for electrocerebral inactivity (ECI) testing?

Which direction are the patient’s eyes moving at the points marked by the green circles?

Which of the following conditions is most likely to have an associated disorder of abnormal motor activity during the following sleep state?

What sensitivity should the EEG be at to qualify for brain death criteria?

Sleep spindles can be asynchronous until what age?

The electrical fields that generate the cortical activity appreciated on electroencephalogram (EEG) are the result of which of the following?

Which of the following is appreciated in the right posterior quadrant in the EEG shown below?

The EEG pattern shown below is most consistent with which of the following?

Which way are the patient’s eyes moving at the point of the asterisk marked below?

Which of the following is most consistent with this EEG tracing?

A 5-month-old female is brought to the emergency room by her parents because of an episode concerning for possible seizure. On arrival, the patient appears back to her clinical baseline neurologically. Several hypomelanotic lesions are appreciated while performing a skin check. The mother notes that her older brother has similar skin findings. An EEG is performed and shown below. A typical event was captured that correlated with an electrodecrement of cortical activity on EEG.

Based on the child’s diagnosis, what is the most appropriate therapy?
