People experiencing seizures, unexplained blackouts, fainting episodes, abnormal movements, sleep-related events, or suspected neurological disorders may be advised to undergo this test.

How is an Ambulatory EEG different from a routine EEG?

A routine EEG typically records brain activity for 20–30 minutes, whereas an Ambulatory EEG monitors brain activity continuously for 24 hours, increasing the likelihood of capturing intermittent abnormalities.
