APPLICATION OF SERIAL MOTOR REACTION INDICATORS AS MARKERS OF FUNCTIONAL CONDITION DYNAMICS IN CHILDREN WITH EPILEPSY

To monitor the functional state of the brain of children with epilepsy, we developed an original modification of the method of study ingserialmotorreactions (tapping) using touch screen devices, which all owsdistant multiple examination and to obtain aninformativeset of performance indicators and their dynamics. Clinical and anamnestic; clinical and neurological research methods were also used. Examination materials of 21 children with epilepsy (13 boys, 8 girls), aged from 6 to 18 years were analyzed. The presence of significant differences in serial motor responses between patients with recurrent seizures and children with no seizures in all age groups allows us to consider the proposed option of tapping as a reliable source of additional information about the functional state of the brain of children with epilepsy, for data processing of which can be used «Big Data» methods.
