Abstract

Previous studies have shown a low incidence of clinical seizure development in healthy individuals with EEG epileptiform discharge activity. This has tended to de-emphasise the role of the EEG in screening pilots. A call is made for consideration of impairment of function associated with epileptiform discharges as a relevant factor in determination of fitness to fly and reconsideration of the role of the EEG in this area.
