Fig. 6From: Diazepam induced sleep spindle increase correlates with cognitive recovery in a child with epileptic encephalopathyPower Spectral Density curves before and after treatment with high dose diazepam in wake (a) and N2 sleep (b). During post-treatment sleep there is a discrete bump in the sleep spindle range (10-15 Hz) that is much smaller in pre-treatment sleep. (Inset) magnification of the sleep spindle frequency band. Both post-treatment wake and sleep EEGs show the expected increase in beta band frequencies (~ 20-25 Hz) after treatment with a benzodiazepineBack to article page
