EEGs were done on 97 patients with the complaint of dizziness and were compared to a normal control group. In patients with dizziness of a syncopal-like type there was a small but significant increase in the incidence of bitemporal sharp wave discharges. Another group, consisting of 48 patients with seizures was evaluated; 71% had noted dizziness, significantly more than a control group. Most seizure patients experienced dizziness as a syncopal-like sensation with an abrupt onset just before their clinical seizures. The majority also experienced identical episodes of dizziness unassociated with their seizures, possibly as an abortive epileptic phenomenon. Dizziness described as rotational (vertigo) was uncommon in these epileptics.
对97名主诉头晕的患者进行了脑电图检查，并与正常对照组进行了比较。在有类晕厥型头晕的患者中，双侧颞叶尖波放电的发生率有小幅但显著的增加。对另一组由48名癫痫患者组成的群体进行了评估；71%的患者曾有过头晕，显著多于对照组。大多数癫痫患者将头晕体验为类晕厥感，在临床发作前突然发作。大多数患者还经历了与癫痫发作无关的相同头晕发作，可能是一种癫痫发作前现象。在这些癫痫患者中，描述为旋转性（眩晕）的头晕并不常见。
