What is the recommended high frequency filter setting for EEG?

What is the recommended high frequency filter setting for EEG?

70 Hz
The HFF should never be lower than 35 Hz, and a 70 Hz HFF setting is recommended for recording EEG activity in patients with suspected seizure activity. There is virtually no distortion of EEG signals at an HFF setting of 70 Hz, since these usually range in frequency from 0.3 to 25 Hz.

What is the frequency range of EEG?

However, the most frequently used method to classify EEG waveforms is by the frequency, so much so, that EEG waves are named based on their frequency range using Greek numerals. The most commonly studied waveforms include delta (0.5 to 4Hz); theta (4 to 7Hz); alpha (8 to 12Hz); sigma (12 to 16Hz) and beta (13 to 30Hz).

What does Hertz mean in EEG?

The number of wave cycles or peaks that occurs in a EEG pattern in a set period of time is its frequency. One EEG wave cycle occurring in a second of time is known as a Hertz (Hz). The amplitude of the EEG pattern is the strength of the pattern in terms of microvolts of electrical energy.

What filters do EEG use?

The raw signal was filtered with the use of four different filters (FIR, IIR, FFT (0, 5–40 Hz) and NOTCH (lower passband edge 46.5 Hz, upper passband edge 127.5 Hz)) and processed. Two parameters are used to compare the effect of the filter on the EEG signal: Latency and amplitude.

What is LFF in EEG?

In the world of clinical EEG, the alternate terms high-frequency filter (HFF—filters out the high frequencies) and low-frequency filter (LFF—filters out the low frequencies) are used, with the terms high filter (HF) and low filter (LF) sometimes used as shorthand abbreviations.

What is EEG montage?

Montages are logical, orderly arrangements of electroencephalographic derivations or channels that are created to display activity over the entire head and to provide lateralizing and localizing information. Most often, bipolar and referential montages are used for routine electroencephalographic recordings.
