We continuously monitored clustered seizures using single-channel amplitude-integrated electroencephalography (aEEG) in a 6-month-old girl with probable benign partial epilepsy in infancy (BPEI). The patient was admitted with clustered seizures, and aEEG using three disposable electrodes was started by a non-expert pediatrician. During the recording, seven seizures were detected. The last seizure was nearly overlooked on clinical observation, but was later confirmed on the basis of aEEG findings. The efficacy of antiepileptic drugs could also be objectively assessed from aEEG findings. Our results show that aEEG is useful for the continuous monitoring of seizures even in older children.
