Figure 2.

The percentages of the patients with increased background frequency and decreased number of spikes on interictal EEG. (A) Compared with the baseline data of patients before stimulator implantation, at 6, 12, 18, and 24 months after stimulator implantation, the percentage of the patients whose background frequency increased >1.5Hz was respectively, 15.0, 50.0, 58.3 and 62.5%; and (B) Compared with the baseline data, at 6, 12, 18, and 24 months after stimulator implantation, the percentage of the patients whose interictal EEG showed a >50% decrease in spike number was respectively, 10, 40.0, 41.6 and 50.0%.
