Published by Elsevier B.V. This is an open access article under the CC BY-NC-ND license (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/).Objective: EEG value in possible transient ischemic attacks (TIA) is unknown. We aim to quantify focal slow wave activity (FSWA) and epileptiform activity (EA) frequency in possible TIA, and to analyse its contribution to the final diagnosis of seizures and/or definitive TIA. Methods: Prospective longitudinal study of possible TIA patients evaluated at a tertiary centre during 36 months and with 1-3 months follow-up. EEG was performed as soon as possible (early EEG) and one month later (late EEG). A stroke neurologist established final diagnosis after reassessing all clinical and diagnostic tests. Results: 80 patients underwent an early EEG (45.8 h after possible TIA): 52 had FSWA and 6 of them also EA. Early FSWA was associated with epileptic seizure or definitive TIA final diagnosis (p = .041). Patients with these diagnoses had more frequently early FSWA (19/23; 82.6%) than EA (6/23; 26.1%). 6/13 (46.2%) patients with epileptic seizure final diagnosis had EA.In the late EEG, 43 (58.1%) patients demonstrated persistent FSWA and 3 of them also EA. Persistent FSWA in the late EEG was more frequent in seizures than in TIA patients (91.7% vs. 45.5%). FSWA disappearance was associated with acute vascular lesion on neuroimage. Conclusions: FSWA was the commonest EEG abnormality found in the early EEG of patients with possible TIA, but did not distinguish between TIA and seizure patients. In patients with seizures, FSWA was more common than EA and its presence in the late EEG was more likely in patients with epileptic seizures than with TIA. Significance: The majority of possible TIA patients with the final diagnosis of epileptic seizures do not have EA in the early or late EEG.ElsevierRepositório da Universidade de LisboaBentes, CarlaCanhão, PatríciaPeralta, Ana RitaViana, PedroFonseca, Ana CatarinaGeraldes, RuthMelo, Teresa Pinho ePaiva, TeresaFerro, José2021-01-05T14:27:17Z20182018-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10451/45663engClin Neurophysiol Pract. 2017 Oct 18;3:11-19.2467-981X10.1016/j.cnp.2017.10.001info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-11-08T16:47:34Zoai:repositorio.ul.pt:10451/45663Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T21:58:00.423096Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
