Abstract
A key goal of neonatal neurocritical care is improved outcomes, and brain monitoring plays an essential role. The recent NEST trial reported no outcome benefits using aEEG monitoring compared to clinical seizure identification among neonates treated for seizures. However, the study failed to prove the effects of monitoring on seizure treatment in the first place.
