Figure 1

Absence status. Paroxysms of 3-5-Hz generalized spike- and polyspike-and-wave discharges are demonstrated on this 20-second EEG sample recorded using an anterior-posterior bipolar montage (Nihon-Kohden, Japan). Note the brief return of the patient's normal background activity between the paroxysms.

Figure 2

Interictal epileptic discharges triggered by hyperventilation. A 3-5-Hz generalized spike-and-wave discharge is triggered by hyperventilation after resolution of the absence status on this 10-second EEG sample, recorded using an anterior-posterior bipolar montage (Nihon-Kohden, Japan).
