Electrical activity of the brain during asphyxia

Abstract

The method of electroencephalography was used to study the convulsive state during strangulation asphyxia. Differences in the electroencephalographic manifestations of tonic and clonic asphytic seizures are shown. With a longer strangulation, a greater severity of convulsive electrical activity of the brain was established. The data obtained can be used for differential diagnosis of convulsive states and in determining the duration of asphyxia.
