anoxia. There were 17 EEGs performed on 14 patients. Nine of the 17 records contained spindle activity. Spindles were present in 6/8 EEGs in stuporous patients, in 3/9 EEGs in comatose patients, in 6/10 patients who eventually died, and in 3/3 patients who regained consciousness. When spindle activity or background reactivity were absent, outcome was poor, ie, death or a persistent vegetative state. The presence of EEG spindle activity after hypoxic or anoxic injury did not indicate a favorable prognosis, but the absence of spindles or EEG background reactivity was associated with a poor outcome.
