Abstract：Electroencephalogram (EEG) signal acquisition equipment is an instrument for amplifying and recording EEG signals.
With the advance of the treatment to the epilepsy, the demand of specialists focusing on EEG increased dramatically. This
paper introduced the current situation of EEG acquisition technology at home and abroad, especially in the hardware of EEG
system. Aiming at the “zero basis” clinical learning status of EEG, according to the actual learning experience of clinicians and
electrophysiological technicians trained by EEG, a set of steps and methods of EEG clinical acquisition technology were summarized
to help readers sort out the learning characteristics of video EEG. This paper hopes that readers can quickly master the basic skills of
EEG clinical acquisition and application, and fully apply the continuously optimized EEG acquisition system, so as to better serve the
clinical and scientific research.
