Quantitative Features of EEG Recorded in the Delivery Room Immediately After Birth

EEG features from term infants recorded minutes after birth. To accompany publication:

D Finn, JM O'Toole, EM Dempsey, GB Boylan, EEG for the Assessment of Neurological Function in Newborn Infants Immediately After Birth, Arch Dis Child Fetal Neonatal Ed, 2018 DOI:10.1136/archdischild-2018-315231

Features are generated using NEURAL (version 0.3.4; code on github); see reference [1] for more details.

This version is archived on Zenodo: DOI

Files

  • qEEG_term_newborns_delivery_suite_ANON.csv: feature set as comma-separated variable file. Will open in Excel (or equivalent).
  • LICENCE.md: terms of use.

Brief description of each feature (see [1] for more details):

column name description
spectral_power__1_ spectral power (delta band = 0.5 to 4 Hz)
spectral_power__2_ spectral power (theta band = 4 to 7 Hz)
spectral_power__3_ spectral power (alpha band = 7 to 13 Hz)
spectral_power__4_ spectral power (beta band = 13 to 30 Hz)
spectral_relative_power__1_ relative spectral power (for each band)
spectral_relative_power__2_
spectral_relative_power__3_
spectral_relative_power__4_
spectral_edge_frequency frequency (Hz) below which 95% spectral power resides
FD fractal dimension (using Higuchi method)
rEEG_median median rEEG (rEEG similar to aEEG)
rEEG_lower_margin lower margin (5th percentile) of rEEG
rEEG_upper_margin upper margin (95th percentile) of rEEG
rEEG_asymmetry symmetry between upper, lower, and median rEEG
