What Is a Home Video EEG?

Precision Epilepsy and Dr. John Millichap have expanded their care options in recent years to include a broad range of different options. For example, we can now provide home video EEG care in a telehealth only environment. But what exactly is this and how does it benefit you? Let’s take a deep look at this topic to clear up any confusion you might still be feeling.

What Is a Home EEG?

A home EEG or electroencephalogram is a common diagnostic tool that detects brain cells or electrical impulses. It’s commonly used to detect neurological conditions, including seizures and epilepsy. A home EEG is exactly what it says: an EEG that you receive at home through a video-based environment.

A doctor will set up an appointment with you and use innovative video programs that can test your brainwaves and provide feedback on your child's health.

Are There Benefits Of This Approach?

At Precision Epilepsy in Chicago, IL,, Dr. Millichap finds that home video EEG in a telehealth only environment provides many benefits that make them more than worth your time. Here are a few reasons why you might prefer this option over a standard EEG:

  • No Travel Time: You don’t have to travel to a hospital to get your child an EEG, which may take up a significant portion of your day. 

  • Treatment At Home: Rather than having to spend 72 hours at a hospital getting an EEG, you can do it at home and relax in a comfortable environment.

  • Lower Costs: Home EEG tests can have a lower cost than standard EEGs, which can also cut back on your insurance needs.

  • More Accurate Results: Since you’ll be getting tested in your natural environment, home EEGs often provide more accurate results.
