The acceptability of sleep-deprived electroencephalograms
The aim of this study was to ascertain the acceptability of sleep-deprived EEGs to parents and their young child. Fifty unselected children having a sleep-deprived EEG were recruited. Data were collected from a sleep diary, a parent questionnaire and the request form of the EEG. Data collected covered developmental, learning and behavioural problems and the acceptability of the sleep-deprived E...
متن کاملAutomated Recognition of Sleep Stages Using Electroencephalograms
The assessment of different sleep stages and their disorders in diseases is an important part of telematic medicine. With an electroencephalogram, the different stages of sleep can be monitored and classified with respect to brain activity. By means of modern data management such as the patient monitor ixTrend, for example, the data can be recorded for long sleep phases and evaluated by a compu...
متن کاملChronically Sleep Deprived
Data from recent laboratory studies indicate that nocturnal sleep periods reduced by as little as 1.3 to 1.5 hours for 1 night result in reduction of daytime alertness by as much as 32% as measured by the Multiple Sleep Latency Test (MSLT). Other data document that 1) 170/0--57% of normal young adults have MSLT latencies of ::;5.5 minutes, whereas ::;50% have MSLT values of ~ 10 minutes and 2) ...
متن کاملCharacterizing Sleep Stages by the Fractal Dimensions of Electroencephalograms
Fourier analysis has shown that human electroencephalography (EEG) signals mainly consist of frequencies below 80 Hz. Waves with a frequency below 13Hz are dominant during sleep. Here we find that the fractal dimensions of sleep EEG results in a frequency range of 2Hz to 13Hz have potential to be used as a continuous parameter to characterize sleep status. Our results show that during sleep, th...
متن کاملUSEFULNESS OF SLEEP-DEPRIVED EEG IN THE DIAGNOSIS OF SEIZURE DISORDERS IN CHILDREN
The provocative effects of sleep deprivation (SD) on patients with seizure disorder and on the electroencephalogram (EEG ) are well known. The purpose of the study was to test its routine use and usefulness in the pediatric and adolescent age group with, or suspect of having, seizure disorder, especially those presenting with first unprovoked seizure.
