Quantitative electroencephalogram enables mathematical analysis of neurological recordings while conventional electroencephalogram lacks the mathematical output; hence, its usage is limited to neurological experts. This study was to determine if quantified conventional electroencephalogram recordings were compatible and comparable with quantitative electroencephalogram recordings. A group of post-call doctors was recruited and subjected to an EEG recording using a conventional electroencephalogram followed by a quantitative electroencephalogram device. The patterns and quantified recording results were compared. A comparative analysis of the two recording sets did not find differences in the recording patterns and statistical analysis. The findings promoted the use of a readily available conventional electroencephalogram in quantitative brain wave studies and have cleared potential compatibility bias towards data merging.
