[Clinical and electrophysiological comparisons in minimal cerebral dysfunction in school-aged children]

Clinico-electrophysiological studies of 74 children of school age with speech disorders demonstrated that the syndrome of the minimal brain dysfunction frequently develops on the background of early organic brain lesions. These data were confirmed by a combination of speech and motor disturbances in 70.3% of the studied children as well as by changes in the electro- and echoencephalograms. That is why one of the criteria for eliminating the syndrome of the minimal brain dysfunction should be the state of the motor and speech systems in combination with EEG data.
