  • Title: Distinction between the myoclonus-related potential and the epileptic spike in epilepsia partialis continua.
    Author: Chauvel P, Liegeois-Chauvel C, Marquis P, Bancaud J.
    Journal: Electroencephalogr Clin Neurophysiol; 1986 Oct; 64(4):304-7. PubMed ID: 2428578.
    Abstract:
    Neurophysiological analysis of spontaneous and reflex-triggered myoclonus in a case of epilepsia partialis continua is reported. A central positive wave (P1), part of the high voltage evoked potential and of the spontaneous spike, is held to be responsible for the myoclonic jerk. It is demonstrated that P1 is a distinct phenomenon from both the evoked potential and the epileptic spike, and so should be identified as a myoclonus-related potential (MRP).
