Entire Body System
- Falling
Sleep disorders are reported by nearly all parents as difficulty falling asleep, frequent awakening, irritability, crying, frequent abnormal postures. [frontiersin.org]
Workup
EEG
- Epileptiform Activity
Typical EEG abnormalities are background slowing and multifocal epileptiform activity. There are no reports of hypsarrhythmia in the literature, despite observations of epileptic spasms with typical ictal EEG correlation (15). [frontiersin.org]
Prognosis
It is important to differentiate PCH 2 from dyskinetic CP, not only for the prognosis of the patients, but also for prenatal diagnosis in future pregnancies. [frontiersin.org]
Etiology
The latter is thought to be a result of perinatal asphyxia in about 70% (although birth asphyxia comprises 8–10% of etiologic causes for all types of CP) (21, 22). [frontiersin.org]
