Neonatal EEG-monitoring including amplitude-integrated EEG (aEEG) is a valuable bedside tool for diagnosis of epileptic seizures and neonatal epileptic encephalopathies, as well as for continuous treatment monitoring. Because of methodical limitations of aEEG monitoring, the combinatory use of aEEG and conventional EEG is recommended as the gold standard. Especially physiological EEG maturation patterns and epileptic discharges (e. g. discharges<10 s, electrographic seizures in very preterm neonates) are exclusively identified by conventional EEG. Long-term EEG/aEEG monitoring is of special significance in neonates at risk of electrographic-only or subtle seizures. EEG/aEEG is an important additional tool for monitoring neonates with HIE undergoing therapeutic hypothermia. Rarely, typical EEG changes indicative of a genetic variant have been characterized. Further studies are necessary on the role of EEG/aEEG as biomarker of neurodevelopmental outcome in neonates with seizures of various etiology.
