Abstract

Objective:To explore the value of ambulatory electroencephalo-gram(AEEG) in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of psychomotor epilepsy.Methods: The 24 h AEEG and EEG were performed in 60 patients with psychomotor epilepsy.Results: Among the 60 patients,the rate of total abnormal AEEG and EEG were 85% and 42.1% respectively whereas the rate of moderately abnormal AEEG and EEG were 66.7% and 23.3% respectively(P0.001).Conclusion: AEEG which can increase the detection rate of epileptic waves should be examined in the intervals of seizures to diagnose the patients with psychomotor epilepsy.
