Night terrors and somnambulism (NTS) are defined as disorders of arousal occurring in children during Stage 3 to 4 of NREM (non-rapid eye movement) sleep. In this study, the interictal EEG recordings in 35 neurologically normal children with clinical NTS were studied. Sixteen children (47%) had disturbed records including: localized slow, spike or sharp wave activity; generalized bursts of high voltage, sharp waves, spikes and slow delta activity or spike and wave complexes; and episodic high-voltage delta activity during wakeful rest. This percentage represents half the incidence of interictal EEG abnormalities in childhood epilepsy, but far greater than the 10 to 15% found in healthy children.
夜惊和梦游（NTS）被定义为儿童在非快速眼动（NREM）睡眠第3至4阶段出现的觉醒障碍。在本研究中，对35名临床诊断为NTS的神经功能正常儿童进行了发作间期脑电图记录研究。16名儿童（47%）的记录存在异常，包括：局部慢波、棘波或尖波活动；高电压、尖波、棘波和慢波δ活动或棘慢复合波的全身性爆发；以及清醒休息时的发作性高电压δ活动。该百分比代表儿童癫痫发作间期脑电图异常发生率的一半，但远高于健康儿童中10%至15%的发生率。
