Reference Values for Three Channels of Amplitude-Integrated EEG Using the Brainz BRM3 Cerebral Function Monitor in Normal Term Neonates: A Pilot Study

Median maximum and median minimum voltages obtained were 16.96 μV and 8.13 μV for the cross-cerebral (CC), 14.42 μV and 7.13 μV for the right unilateral, and 13.16 μV and 6.51 μV for the left unilateral aEEG channels, respectively. There were no statistically significant difference amplitude voltages for any channel based on route of delivery. The presence of a caput succedaneum was associated with a decrease in the median and mean of the maximum and minimum amplitude voltages for CC channel. Median maximum and median minimum voltages for the CC channel among the caput and normal scalp examination groups were 14.62 μV vs 17.27 μV (P = 0.022) and 7.21 μV vs 8.24 μV (P = 0.004), respectively. Similarly, mean maximum and mean minimum voltages for the CC channel were 15.42 μV vs 17.59 μV (P = 0.038) and 7.27 μV vs 8.25 μV (P = 0.005) in the caput and normal scalp examination groups, respectively.
