and sleep disorders. Seizures cause spikes on the EEG graph. Brain tumors or a stroke make the waves slower than usual. EEG is also used to find the cause of symptoms like memory loss and fainting.

EE-CSWS is a rare pediatric developmental and/or epileptic encephalopathy that is characterized by a continuous or nearly continuous spike and wave electroencephalogram (EEG) pattern during the ...

Slow brainwaves that usually only occur in the brain during sleep ... waves may protect against the increased brain excitability found in epilepsy. The UCL study examined electro-encephalogram ...

Research from Columbia University and NewYork-Presbyterian suggests that brain waves associated with sleep may help predict recovery in unresponsive patients with recent brain injuries. The study, ...

If you've been looking for a sign to work on your sleep hygiene ... The different types of brain waves as they appear on an EEG. Delta waves (top) are slow and low-frequency, while gamma rays ...

The researchers hope that in the future, people could wear special EEG headbands at home while they sleep. These devices could quietly gather brain wave data over several nights, without the need ...

The anesthesiologist said the burst of activity called gamma synchrony — a type of brain wave pattern linked to conscious thought, awareness, and perception — was picked up on the EEG and ...
