Characterization and Comparison of Local Onset and Remote Propagated Electrographic Seizures Recorded with Intracranial Electrodes

The initial ictal discharge pattern recorded with intracranial electrodes can assist in differentiating local onset and remote propagated electrographic seizures, with rhythmic round theta-delta activity being unique to distant propagated sites. Nevertheless, the initial discharge of a subclass of remote propagated electrographic seizures consists of an independent pattern indistinguishable from that observed at local onset sites.
