A member asked:
What does sharp waves and left side slowing mean on an eeg after a head injury?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
EEG interp: Sharp waves and slowing on one side, especially in one region, suggest an increased risk of seizures, due to changes in the cortex (surface of the brain) in that area. Have you had any symptoms of a seizure? If so, it may be a good idea to take some seizure precautions in such a case.
