title: [Cerebral cortex biopotential and blood oxygenation in glaucomatous patient (author's transl)].
abstract: This report presents the data of blood oxygenation investigations (performed according to the method of oxyphemography) of cerebral cortex biopotential determination (EEG) in 32 glaucomatous patients (27 having a bilateral process in developed and advanced stages of the disease. The majority of the patients appeared to have oxygen deficiency (26 subj.) and anomalous EEG (29 subj.). A statistically rather high coefficient of correlation between changes in EEG and OHG deviations was determined. The results enabled the authors to conclude that low cerebral cortex activity in glaucoma patients might be the result of blood oxygen deficiency.
