Objective: To explore the value of video-electroencephalography plus surface electromyography (VEEG+SEMG) in providing theoretic rationales for clinical diagnosis of different motor seizure types and differentiating the application value of paroxysmal diseases.
Methods: A total of 116 suspected and repetitive motion epileptics underwent VEEG+SEMG from 2009 to 2012. According to their clinical features, different muscles were selected to record electromyography (EMG) under different activations and stimulations (bodily movement and posture activation, touching, sound stimulus, tapping tendons and arms straight test, etc) and monitor their seizure states.
