A 50uv wave at sensitivity 5uv/mm produces a deflection of? -
correct answer -10mm
IF the sensitivity is 7uv and the voltage is 20uv what is the
measurement of the deflection? -correct answer -2.9mm
what is the voltage ofa spike if it measures 15mm peak to peak
and sensitivity value is 10uv/mm -correct answer -150uv
In an EEG displayed at 30mm/sec, a high voltage transient with a
duration of 2mm would be: -correct answer -a spike
Given a voltage of 50uv and a sensitivity of 10uv/mm what is the
amplitude? -correct answer -5mm

correct answer -100msec
1 CM; -correct answer -10mm
Hypsarrhythmia; -correct answer -disorganized, continuous high
voltage slow wves with interspersed multifocal spike waves

most often appears: -correct answer -suddenly in resting EEG
, Page | 3
Photoparoxysmal response are characterized by: -correct answer
-Generalized irregular spike and wave discharges or polyspike
and burst
Small sharp spikes -correct answer -benign epileptiform transients
of sleep
Which EEG pattern is LEAST likely to be associated with clinical
symptoms? -correct answer -6hz spike and wave

What differentiates Lambda and POSTS -correct answer -occurs
with eyes open
Mu rhythm; -correct answer -8-10hz
During a neonatal seizures, the EEG is most likely to show: -
correct answer -Focal rhythmic activity
, Page | 4
It is common for FIRDA to; -correct answer -React to stimulation
What is the most important when evaluating background
frequency? -correct answer -wakefulness and age
Alpha coma; -correct answer -8-13 hz activity occuring diffusely
and maximum anteriorly
