“…EEG findings have been reported to improve after initiation of dialysis or with transplant. 450 Tests of cognitive function were abnormal in all patients and were more impaired with increasing creatinine. Transplant and dialysis patients had somewhat better, but not normal, scores.…”

“…The studies had sample sizes ranging from 40 to 210 subjects, with 29 to 72 patients with decreased kidney function not yet on dialysis. All but one 450 of the studies showed that NCV was decreased below normal levels among patients with decreased kidney function. In three of the studies, the correlation between kidney function level and NCV was significant; in the other two correlation was suggested but lacked statistical significance.…”

EEG has been described to be minimally abnormal in a ''small percentage'' of patients 445 or as slowed in most patients, 450 with the degree of slowing more pronounced with more advanced dysfunction. EEG findings have been reported to improve after initiation of dialysis or with transplant.…”

These guidelines are based upon the best information available at the time of publication. They are designed to provide information and assist decision making. They are not intended to define a standard of care, and should not be construed as doing so. Neither should they be interpreted as prescribing an exclusive course of management.Variations in practice will inevitably and appropriately occur when clinicians take into account the needs of individual patients, available resources, and limitations unique to an institution or type of practice. Every healthcare professional making use of these guidelines is responsible for evaluating the appropriateness of applying them in the setting of any particular clinical situation.The recommendations for research contained within this document are general and not meant to imply a specific protocol.

“…The symptoms which characterize the clinical uremic encephalopathy due to renal failure include mental sluggishness, diminished mental acuity and vigilance, drowsiness, stupor, coma, irritability, restlessness, myoclonus, seizures, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, itching, and hypothermia [9]. EEG is useful in assessing patients in uremic encephalopathy and in monitoring their progress.…”

Aim: To study Electroencephalogram (EEG) in different stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Materials and Methods:This observational study was carried out in the Department of Medicine, Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College, Sawangi (Meghe), Wardha conducted over a period of 24 months, spanning from August 2011 to August 2013. Eighty three cases of CKD at different stages were studied. EEG was done in all the subjects and the various EEG dynamics like morphometric waveform patterns, symmetricity, amplitude were recorded and compared with the different stages of CKD. Results:We found that characteristic changes were observed with increasing severity of CKD. Slow delta wave patterns were more prominent in stage 5 (p<0.0001), asymmetric discharges, dysthymia, sharp wave transients and low amplitude wave forms were more prominent beyond Stage 4 (p<0.0001).
