Rationale: To see whether acute intraoperative recordings using stereo EEG (SEEG) electrodes can replace chronic intracranial EEG (iEEG) recording, making the process more efficient and safer.

Methods: Ten minutes of iEEG were recorded following electrode implantation in 16 anesthetized patients, and 3-4 days later during non-rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. Ripples on oscillations (RonO, 80-250 Hz), ripples on spikes (RonS), sharp-spikes i.e false HFOs 80-600 Hz, fast RonO (fRonO, 250-600 Hz), and fast RonS (fRonS) were detected. HFO rates in the SOZ and non-SOZ were compared using a two-way repeated measures ANOVA. A receiver operating curve (ROC) analysis was used for quantifying SOZ classification accuracy. HFO rates were also compared within the resection margins and compared with outcome.

Results: In both the intraoperative and non-REM sleep recordings, sharp-spikes and all HFO subtypes were increased in the SOZ (p< 0.01). However, the increases were larger during the non-REM sleep recordings (p< 0.05). The area under the ROC curves (AUROC) for SOZ classification were significantly smaller for intraoperative sharp-spikes, fRonO, and fRonS rates, compared to the AUROC of these biomarkers detected during non-REM sleep (p< 0.05).

Conclusions: Acute intraoperative SEEG recordings exhibit increased rates of sharp-spikes and HFOs in the SOZ, however recording these biomarkers during non-REM sleep offers a more accurate delineation of the SOZ.
