Abstract:
Objective To investigate the characteristics of electroencephalograms ( EEGs ) of patients with childhood absence epilepsy ( CAE ) .Methods EEG of 46 patients with CAE were analyzed .Results Of 46 patients,there were 44 cases (95.6%) with guided bilateral symmetry 3Hz spike-and-wave.16 cases were character-ized by multiple spike-and-wave on the 3Hz spike and slow wave;and the centrotemporal spikes was found in 1 case. Additionally,the 3Hzδactivity in occipital region has been traced in 34 cases of these 46 patients.Conclusion In general,the EEGs of CAE patients have typical characteristics ,and few of them showed atypical manifestation ,which must be verified by clinical attention .
