    The document discusses key things to look for in EEG signals, including waveforms (regular vs irregular), frequency bands (delta, theta, alpha, beta), amplitude (high, medium, low), and distribution (generalized, lateralized, localized). It provides details on waveform shapes, the frequency bands defined by Walter and Berger, how amplitude is measured, and how activity can be distributed across the head or localized to certain regions.

    EEG signals
    44 things
    things to
    to look
    look for
    for in
    in EEG
    EEG signals
    signals

    01 Waveforms
    The shape of a wave (wave = any
    change in the difference of electrical
    potential between a pair of recording
    electrodes)
    Regular waveforms (sinusoidal, arch
    shaped, saw tooth shaped)
    Irregular waveforms

    02 Frequency
    EEG waves are divided into 4
    frequency bands
    Delta, theta, alpha, beta bands
    Delta and theta frequencies are
    slow waves. The terms were
    given by Walter.
    Alpha and beta frequencies are
    fast waves. The terms were given
    by Hence Berger.

    03 Amplitude
    measured in microvolts
    from peak to peak
    High amplitude = over 50
    microvolts
    Medium amplitude = 20-50
    microvolts
    Low amplitude = under 20
    microvolts

    04 Distribution
    Distribution of the signals
    Generalized, lateralized, or localized
    distribution
    Generalized = activity that occurs at
    the same time over all or most of the
    head
    Lateralized on the right hemisphere
    Lateralized = activity that occurs
    mostly on one side of the head
    Localized = activity that is restricted to
    one or few electrodes over an area of
    the head
