Wicket spikes: clinical correlates of a previously undescribed EEG pattern.
Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences. le Journal Canadien des Sciences Neurologiques 1977 Februrary
From an analysis of the electroencephalograms of 4,458 patients who underwent recording during both wakefulness ans sleep, through the years 1969 to 1975, wicket spikes-- recorded in 39 patients-- may be described as follows: They were found during both wakefulness ans sleep, almost exclusively in adults. Their cardinal feature is a changing mode of occurrence through any single recording: from intermittent trains of more or less sustained, arciform, discharges resembling mu rhythm, to sporadic, urinary, single spikes. When occurring singly, wicket spikes can be mistaken for anterior or middle temporal spikes, since they predominate in eith er area, and since they share with them other characteristics such as amplitude (60 to 210 microvolts), polarity (surface negative) duration, and configuration. Wicket spikes should not be considered interictal abnormalities; they do nor correlate with epilepsy or with any particular symptom complex.
