Role of ictal baseline shifts and ictal high‐frequency oscillations in stereo‐electroencephalography analysis of mesial temporal lobe seizures

Summary Objective To assess the role of ictal baseline shifts (IBS) and ictal high‐frequency oscillations (iHFOs) in intracranial electroencephalography (EEG) presurgical evaluation by analysis of the spatial and temporal relationship of IBS, iHFOs with ictal conventional stereo‐electroencephalograp...

Summary:Summary Objective To assess the role of ictal baseline shifts (IBS) and ictal high‐frequency oscillations (iHFOs) in intracranial electroencephalography (EEG) presurgical evaluation by analysis of the spatial and temporal relationship of IBS, iHFOs with ictal conventional stereo‐electroencephalography (icEEG) in mesial temporal lobe seizures (MTLS). Methods We studied 15 adult patients with medically refractory MTLS who underwent monitoring with depth electrodes. Seventy‐five ictal EEG recordings at 1,000 Hz sampling rate were studied. Visual comparison of icEEG, IBS, and iHFOs were performed using Nihon‐Kohden Neurofax systems (acquisition range 0.016–300 Hz). Each recorded ictal EEG was analyzed with settings appropriate for displaying icEEG, IBS, and iHFOs. Results IBS and iHFOs were observed in all patients and in 91% and 81% of intracranial seizures, respectively. IBS occurred before (22%), at (57%), or after (21%) icEEG onset. In contrast, iHFOs occurred at (30%) or after (70%) icEEG onset. The onset of iHFOs was 11.5 s later than IBS onset (p
