[Reaction to awakening from sleep in children (electroencephalographic study of 153 subjects)]. / Osservazioni sulla reazione di risveglio nei bambini (studio elettroencefalografico su 153 soggetti)

ABSTRACT

The arousal reaction has been studied on the EEG records of 153 children aged within 1 and 4 and observed suffering from different neuropsychiatric disorders. In the majority of the patients the arousal was accompanied by diffuse paroxysmal modifications that are present both in the records of clinically epileptic children and in those having never suffered of epileptic seizures.
