Figure 1. Apnea after hippocampus and amygdala stimulation.

Figure 1

(A) Hippocampus head stimulation at intensities of 3 and 4 mA induced instant central apnea in patient 2. Apnea periods ended before stimulation was discontinued. (C) Apnea with 3 mA intensity stimulation of the hippocampus head in patient 2. (B, D) Stimulation in patient 2 at 6, 7, and 8 mA current intensities induced immediate change in respiratory rhythm. Central apnea was elicited at 10 mA current intensity in the same patient.
