Mun Ju Kim, Sang Ook Nam
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2010;53(4):560-564.   Published online April 15, 2010
Purpose : Electroencephalography (EEG) findings can play a critical role in a variety of decisions, including initiation and withdrawal of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) therapy. Interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) are predictor of recurrent seizures. We investigated IEDs in EEG after AED therapy and related factors in epileptic children. Methods : The subjects were 257 children [151 males and 106 females; age,...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(3):380-385.   Published online March 15, 2000
Purpose : Periodic lateralized epileptiform discharges(PLEDs), initially described by Chatrian et al in 1964, are an EEG phenomenon characterized by lateralized or focal spike-and-wave complexes with moderate to high voltage which occur in a periodic or semiperiodic pattern. This study was performed to assess the clinical significance of PLEDs and its relation to an imaging study of the brain. Methods :...

Wonil Park, Hong Jin Lee, Kung Ja Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1991;34(11):1559-1564.   Published online November 30, 1991
Seizures are the most common neurologic manifestation in childhood. The demonstration of epileptiform disshonge on EEG not only support clinical diagnosis but also aid the classification of epilepsy. 174 patients with recurrent seizure were taken EEG studies in Chuncheon Sacred Heart Hospital from Jan. 1985 to Dec. 1990. and 71 patients (40.8%) of them occured epilepiform discharge in inital EEG recording. The incidence of epilepiform pattern...
