"Duration 24 minutes

Clinical Information: The patient status, per technologist, sleep. Sedation, none. The patient is a 5 yo male with history of seizures.

Medications: None

Technique: Photic stimulation was performed.

Findings: There is a lot of Theta activity. There are some spindles. The patient is asleep during the test. It could be hypnagogic hypersynchrony. There are some amount of vertex sharp waves, no hyperventilation was performed. The patient is drowsy. There is no good waking tracing. Possibly semi-rhythmic 5 to 6 Theta activity. The patient is possibly awake at the end of the test, but most of the time he is asleep, showing spindles. Photic stimulatino did not generate any abnormalities.

Electrocardiographic Analysis: Cardiac rhythm was monitored with a one lead caardiac monitor and there is some amount of cardiac arrhythmia. (Really, I didn't know this.)

Impression: This EEG is consistent with hypnagogic hypersynchrony. There is probably n o significant abnormality awake drowsy and asleep.

Addendum, Dr. Nowack has personally reviewed this study and formulated the interpretations and opinions expressed in this report."
