EEG load test

Indications for EEG with load tests

Electroencephalography with loads is used, as a rule, to diagnose diseases that manifest themselves only occasionally, and the rest of the time brain activity does not differ from normal. These are, for example, some types of epilepsy, in which functional tests provoke an attack of the disease for its accurate diagnosis.

Functional effects are part of standard brain examinations in children and adults, and in addition to suspected epilepsy can be useful for traumatic brain injuries and some types of mental disorders. This procedure can also be carried out to determine foci of pathological activity and in the study of the dynamics of nervous processes.

The reasons for the research are the following conditions:

• Sleep problems;
• frequent dizziness, fainting;
• causeless headaches.
• Constant feeling of fatigue and rapid fatigue.

Results of the procedure

After examination, the EEG with stress samples is interpreted by a qualified diagnostic doctor. The results obtained are compared with the norms, and deviations are recorded in the conclusion.

The study of rhythms becomes the basis of conclusions about the bioelectric activity of the brain. If the state of the brain is normal, then its activity should be regular, synchronous, rhythmic and proceed without seizures. In the absence of pathological disorders, moderate deviations from the norm are quite permissible.–In this case, the doctor usually prescribes corrective treatment and observation of the patient.

The use of electroencephalography allows to identify many hidden pathologies in the early stages. For example, if you do an EEG of the brain to a child, you can determine the developmental delay even before the first manifestations.
