[Pseudoperiodic and paroxysmal electroencephalographic activities].

Anne-Catherine Dunand, Pierre Jallon

    Neurophysiologie Clinique = Clinical Neurophysiology
    |March 28, 2002
    PubMed
    Summary

    This review reclassifies periodic electroencephalogram (EEG) patterns, examining their correlation with neurological conditions. Understanding these EEG patterns aids in diagnosing various brain disorders.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurophysiology
    • Neurology
    • Electroencephalography (EEG)

    Context:

    • Periodic and paroxysmal EEG patterns are common findings in clinical neurology.
    • These patterns often indicate underlying neurological or systemic diseases.
    • Existing classifications of periodic EEG activity require critical examination and potential revision.

    Purpose:

    • To reclassify and critically examine periodic electroencephalogram (EEG) patterns.
    • To review and update the classification proposed by J. Gaches thirty years ago.
    • To enhance the understanding of the diagnostic significance of various periodic EEG patterns.

    Summary:

    • Periodic EEG activity is classified by location (generalized/focal) and periodicity (long/short interval).
    • Long-interval patterns are linked to SSPE, trypanosomiasis, and phencyclidine intoxication.
    • Suppression bursts (SB) are associated with post-anoxic encephalopathies, drug-induced comas, and Ohtahara syndrome.
    • Short-interval patterns appear in Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, toxic encephalopathies (lithium, Cefepime), metabolic encephalopathies, and AIDS.
    • Periodic lateralized epileptiform discharges (PLEDs) are primarily linked to cerebrovascular disease and herpes encephalitis.

    Impact:

    • Provides a refined classification for periodic EEG patterns.
    • Improves diagnostic accuracy for neurological and systemic conditions identified through EEG.
    • Offers a valuable resource for neurologists and researchers in interpreting complex EEG findings.
