“…9 The pathophysiology of these transient neurologic events is thought to be a result of reduced cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP). 1 Without corresponding increases in mean arterial pressure, increases in ICP will result in reduced CPP, potentially leading to these paroxysmal events.…”

“…1 In the absence of invasive ICP monitoring, plateau waves are often presumed if video-EEG monitoring documents clinical events without electrographic seizures or epileptiform patterns. The exclusion of clinical or electrographic seizures is important, as these may occur in 1 of 7 patients with LM.…”

“…Changes of similar timing have been widely studied in the cerebrospinal fluid pressure which are also associated with cardiorespiratory, blood pressure, and EEG changes (Lundberg, 1960;lngvar and Lundberg, 1961;Kjallquist et al, 1964;Cooper and Hulme, 1966;Symon et al, 1972).…”

SYNOPSISThe EEG changes, with associated cardiorespiratory phenomena and, where possible, postmortem findings, are described in six patients in coma, with some reference to other similar cases. Spontaneously occurring periodic changes were observed at varying intervals between 20 s and 4 min but most commonly at 4-2 min. These involved simultaneous cardiorespiratory, EEG, and somatic motor phenomena related to changes in the level of arousal. It is suggested that a physiological periodicity of the arousal mechanisms exists which may be of importance in the understanding of the pathophysiology of comatose states.

The cyclic alternating pattern (CAP) characterizes stage-II coma according to Fischgold and Mathis. Its evolution and prognostic value are still uncertain. An analytic investigation of CAP and its components (phase A of greater arousal and phase B of lesser arousal) was conducted on a patient with post-traumatic coma who completely recovered. The relationships between this type of pattern and the stages of physiologic sleep were investigated during four prolonged night recordings taken at regular intervals. The evolution of CAP in post-traumatic coma is compared with the development of CAP observed in Creutz-feldt-Jakob disease. The hypothesis is suggested that CAP may be related to other cyclic phenomena, especially the Lundberg B-type CSF pressure waves. According to this assumption, in a coma with CAP, mechanisms for the organization of arousal, which are not known but persist up to the threshold of death, could still be acting. In sleep these same mechanisms are supposed to be integrated with others, more sophisticated and less resistant to pathogenic injuries.
