Spontaneous excitatory movements during recovery from propofol anaesthesia in an infant: EEG evaluation.
Spontaneous excitatory movements have been observed during recovery from propofol anaesthesia in children. Epilepsy has been postulated as a possible mechanism to explain these movements. We report the first case in which these spontaneous excitatory movements were studied using simultaneous multichannel EEG recordings.
