Ictal direct current shifts (icDCs) and ictal high‐frequency oscillations (icHFOs) have been reported as surrogate markers for better surgical outcomes in epilepsy surgery. icDCs have been classified into two types: rapid and slow development. icDCs have been investigated with a time constant of 10 s (TC10s); however, many institutes use electroencephalography with a time constant of 2 s (TC2s). This study aimed to evaluate whether icDCs can be observed adequately with TC2s; moreover, it examined the relationship between the resected core area of icDCs or icHFOs and surgical outcomes, occurrence rate of each type of icDCs, and relationship between each type of icDCs and pathology.
