  • Title: Pseudoperiodic paroxysmal discharge in a case of hemorrhagic shock.
    Author: Bindi A, Rossi L, de Scisciolo G, Zappoli F, Ammannati F, Zappoli R.
    Journal: Ital J Neurol Sci; 1984 Dec; 5(4):447-50. PubMed ID: 6442286.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of hemorrhagic shock associated with an EEG pattern resembling pseudoperiodic lateralized paroxysmal discharges, repeated focal motor seizures on the opposite side of the prevalent EEG abnormalities and consciousness disturbances in the absence of a demonstrable cerebral lesion occurring in a 45 year-old woman without a personal or familial history of epilepsy. This unusual electroclinical picture appeared inexplicably several days after the hemorrhagic shock when the laboratory data had already normalized. The only cause of this picture seemed to be brain hypoxia and the metabolic disorders consequent upon hemorrhagic shock.
