EEG (Electroencephalogram)

At Utage Child Development Centre, we offer EEG testing as part of our advanced neurodiagnostic services to evaluate your child’s brain activity. An EEG (Electroencephalogram) is a safe, painless, and non-invasive test that helps diagnose various neurological and developmental conditions, including seizures, epilepsy, and developmental delays.

What is an EEG?

An EEG records the electrical activity of the brain using small sensors (electrodes) placed on the scalp. It helps detect:

• Seizures or epilepsy

• Unusual brain wave patterns

• Sleep disturbances

• Unexplained episodes of staring, fainting, or confusion

• Brain function in children with developmental or neurological issues

It is often recommended by pediatric neurologists for further evaluation.

When Should Your Child Have an EEG?

An EEG may be suggested if your child:

• Has frequent staring spells, jerky movements, or fainting episodes

• Has been diagnosed with or suspected of having seizures or epilepsy

• Shows regression in skills or delayed milestones

• Experiences sudden behavioral or memory changes

• Has head injuries, speech delays, or unresponsive episodes

• Needs further neurological evaluation for autism, ADHD, or other brain-related conditions

What Happens During the Test?

At Utage, we ensure the procedure is child-friendly and stress-free:

• Your child lies down comfortably while our technician places soft sensors on the scalp

• The sensors are connected to a machine that records brain wave patterns

• The test may be done while your child is awake, drowsy, or asleep depending on the neurologist’s recommendation

• The entire procedure usually takes 30–60 minutes

• The report is reviewed by a neurologist and explained clearly to you
