Elective inpatient video-EEG monitoring during the COVID-19 pandemic.

To evaluate the safety and feasibility of admission for elective video-EEG monitoring during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. We performed a retrospective review of elective inpatient epilepsy monitoring unit admissions at our institution from May 3, 2020 to August 12, 2020. All patients were screened by telephone for symptoms concerning infection or recent diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 or excess medical risk prior to admission.
