Nurse-led Advanced Neuromonitoring in Critically ill children with Encephalopathy

2022 – 20252 team members

Overview

NuANCEd is an integrated knowledge translation project that brings together implementation science, quality improvement and research. The project focuses on developing and implementing a nurse-led processed EEG (qEEG) based seizure screening program to minimize delays in seizure diagnosis and treatment. This is a four-phase project and we are currently in the pre-implementation phase wherein we are collecting baseline data regarding time lag between seizure occurrence, detection and treatment.

Objectives

Develop a nurse-led qEEG-based seizure screening program
Reduce time to seizure detection and treatment
Establish baseline data on current seizure detection practices
Improve outcomes for critically ill children with encephalopathy
