Abstract Objective This study investigated whether scalp high‐frequency activity (HFA) rates in neonates with seizures predict postneonatal epilepsy (PNE). It also assessed whether HFA rates differentiate neonates with seizures from healthy neonates and whether they vary by seizure etiology, therapeutic hypothermia, and electroencephalographic (EEG ...
