You are called to do an EEG on a patient 2 uv/mm
who was found down for an unknown
amount of time. Based on your findings,
you decided to perform cerebral
death
protocol via your labs policy. The
sensitivity should be increased to
A recording directly from the brain Electrocorticorgraphy
Tacys Sachs disease is associated with Cherry red spots in the eyes
You are recording in a longitudinal (double transverse montage
banana) montage. You see a spike
discharge phase reverse at C4 and T4. In
this case the true localization of the spike
can best be see in a
If the time (horizontal) scale is changed there is no frequency change but the activity appears faster
from 30mm/sec to 15mm/sec, the 6 hertz
activity becomes
Which of the follow drugs show the most Benzodiaepines

During a bipolar recording, you notice Equipotential at T3 and T5
sharp activity from F7-T3 that shows an
upward deflection, T3-T5 shows no activity,
and T5-O1 shows a downward
deflection. Which statement below best
represents the above scenario?
A characteristic of this disease is high Batten's disease

You are performing an EEG on a person normal activity
who has Alzheimer's disease, but is is
the very early stages. You are most likely
to see this on the EEG
The amplitude of a theta wave on the left amplitude asymmetry
temporal is 65uV, and the amplitude of a
theta wave at the same time on the right
temporal is 25 uV. This is called
You are performing an EEG on a patient a linked ear referential montage
and notice ECG (EKG) artifact. The
montage to best eliminate ECG is
Syringomyelia abnormal cavity or cyst in the spinal cord
Focal seizures refer to Seizures occurring from one hemisphere
Wada testing is done to determine speech dominance
Brainstem midbrain, pons and medulla
As you are performing an EEG, you notice sharp
a wave that is sharply contoured and
stands out from the background located in
the left temporal region. You measure
it,
and it measures 90ms in duration. You
would call this wave a
