RESUMEN
Objective To investigate and study the relationship between abnormal monitoring and prognosis of long range video electroencephalogram(VEEG)in patients with intractable epilepsy. Methods 100 patients from March 2012 to May 2017 in our hospital whose diagnosis and treatment of refractory epilepsy were the research object,all patients were given VEEG monitoring records,epilepsy typing characteristics and antiepileptic drug(AEDs)use survey,prognosis of all patients and the correlation analysis. In 100 cases,GTCS 60 cases,CPS 30 cases,CPS-GTCS 10 cases;56 cases treated with sodium valproate,lamotrigine treatment in 44 cases. Results VEEG monitored 80 cases of epileptiform discharge in 100 patients and 20 cases without epileptiform discharge. There was no significant difference in the incidence of epileptiform discharges between different epileptic patients in VEEG monitoring(P > 0.05),and there was no significant difference in the incidence of epileptiform discharges between VEEG patients in different medication groups(P > 0.05). The total effective rate of treatment in the VEEG epileptiform discharge group was 91.3%,which was significantly lower than that of the VEEG non epileptic discharge group (100%,P < 0.05). The main adverse reactions during treatment were drowsiness , abnormal behavior, abnormal sensation and gastrointestinal reaction. There was no significant difference in monitoring epileptiform discharges between VEEG patients (P > 0.05). All adverse reactions were improved after symptomatic treatment. Conclusion The VEEG plays an important role in guiding the patients with refractory epilepsy for epilepsy typing characteristics and AEDs treatment ,so it has significant correlation to the prognosis , and it also has an important significance in assessing the prognosis.
RESUMEN
Objective To study the pathogenesis and the effect of early drugs therapy of symptoms after concussion.Methods One-hundred and thirteen patients with symptoms after suffered concussion enrolled in the study and divided randomly into three groups.The patients of different groups were treated respectively with drugs,i.e.erigeron breviscapus,nimodipine,energy mixture.Symptom Check-List 90 ( SCL-90 ) and electroencephalogram(EEG) and cerebral blood flow of trancranial Doppler(TCD) were examined in the early and late stage of post-concussion.Normal population were recruited as control.All examination results and the effect of treatment were compared between treatment group and control group.Results In the scores of SCL-90,the factor scores of somatization symptom,compulsion,depressive disorder,anxiety disorders,and hostile symptom in 113 post-concussion patients in early stage were all higher than those in the normal( t =10.78,2.08,9.53,11.09 and 2.52,P ＜0.01or P ＜0.05),and as well as that of somatization symptom,depressive disorder,anxiety disorders,terror and mental disorder symptom in 12 post-concussion patients in late stage compared to normal( t =3.21,6.85,3.07,3.14 and 4.73,Ps ＜ 0.01 ).The test of EEG was abnormal in 57.4 ％ of patients in early stage and in 33.3％ in the late stage.Of all TCD results,67.0 ％ was abnormal in the early stage and 25.0％ in the late stage,The disappearance rate of post-concussion symptoms in the 14th day was significantly higher in the erigeron breviscapus group ( 45.0％ ) than in the nimodipine group ( 23.7％ ) ( x2 =3.91,P ＜0.05 ) and in the energy mixture group ( 20.0％ ) ( x2 =5.25,P ＜ 0.05 ).The disappearance rate of postconcussion symptoms in the 30th day in the energy mixture group(40.0％ ) was significantly lower than those in nimodipine group( 68.4％ )( x2 =5.94,P ＜ 0.05 ) and in erigeron breviscapus group( 75.0％ )( x2 =9.43,P ＜ 0.01 ).The occurrence rate of post-concussion sequelae was higher in the energy mixture group ( 22.9％ )than in the nimodipine group ( 5.2％ ) ( x2 =4.77,P ＜ 0.05 ) and in the erigeron breviscapus group (5.0％ )( x2 =5.15,P ＜ 0.05 ) three month after injuries.Conclusion The occurrence of symptoms originated from the organic damage of brain tissue.However,its changes were influenced by psychologic factors after concussion.Early vasodilative drugs therapy could improve the recovery of patients with post-concussion symptoms in time and decrease the occurrence of post-concussion sequelae.
