Abstract
El electroencefalograma (EEG) es una técnica que permite obtener el registro de las ondas
eléctricas cerebrales. Una de las modalidades de esta técnica lo constituye el EEG con
privación de sueño. Este proceder se indica fundamentalmente cuando, por medio de la
realización de un EEG rutinario, se sospecha de estar en presencia de un paciente con
epilepsia ya que el 20 % de los registros de EEG con privación de sueño muestran actividad
epileptiforme no detectada en el EEG convencional. Resulta de vital importancia el
desempeño del personal de enfermería en la correcta realización de esta técnica. En este
trabajo se realizó, además, un estudio retrospectivo (Enero 2003 - Mayo 2006) de los EEGs
con privación de sueño llevados a cabo en nuestro departamento.
SUMMARY The electroencephalogram (EEG) is a technique that allows obtaining the registration of cerebral electric waves. One of the modalities of this technique is the sleep deprivation electroencephalogram. This approach is recommended, fundamentally, when by means of a routine EEG, it is suspected that the patient has epilepsy, since it has been showed that 20% of the EEG recording using sleep deprivation shows epileptiform activity no detected with the conventional EEG. It is of great importance the the work of the nurse in the correct performance of this procedure. Also, in this work, a retrospective study (January 2003- May 2006), was carried out taking into account the EEG with sleep deprivation carried out in our department.
