Here, we assessed the prognostic value of EEG regarding sedative history and various etiologies in pediatric patients who had undergone EEGs at the pediatric intensive care unit of Severance Hospital for 5 years. Methods We performed a retrospective study of total 113 pediatric patients who met our criteria. In-hospital mortality was measured for the primary outcome. Results In-hospital mortality was observed in 43 patients (38.1%) and sedatives were used in 37 patients (32.7%). Patients who showed in-hospital mortality were more like to have higher EEG background scores and absent EEG reactivity (P
