ObjectiveTo discuss the scientific research and application value of the new China Association Against Epilepsy (CAAE) EEG reporting system, and to explore the model of establishing EEG database of tertiary comprehensive epilepsy center. MethodsA retrospective study was performed on outpatients who underwent EEG examination at the Epilepsy Center of Tsinghua University Yuquan Hospital from May 2021 to May 2022, and who also received EEG reports using the CAAE new EEG reporting system. We integrated the data of these 6380 patients with the previous database of our Epilepsy Center, and combined the two for the preliminary big data analysis. Results Among 6380 patients, normal EEG was reported in 2253 cases (35.3%) ,abnormal EEG in 4031 cases (63.2%), no definite abnormality in 96 cases. According to age groups, there were 3290 cases in children (51.0%), 1372 cases in adults (22.0%), 753 cases in adolescents (12.0%), 730 cases in infants (11.0%) and 235 cases in infants (4.0%).A total of 1466 (23.0%) patients were recorded with paroxysmal events, including 874 (60.0%) epileptic events. 517 (35.0%) non-epileptic events. ConclusionThe new EEG reporting system can provide a large number of researchable EEG data to guide clinical work, and it is an important tool for data sharing and big data research in the future.
