Introduction: Ischemic anoxic cerebral crises are linked to cardio-inhibition in response to vagal hypersensitivity which causes cerebral ischemic.
Objective: In this paper we proposed to describe the clinical and electrophysiological features seen during the ocular compression test.
Patients And Methods: We studied 200 children with clinical findings suggesting ischemic anoxic cerebral crises with positive results on ocular compression testing.
Objective: Reflex anoxic cerebral crises are due to depression of nerve function caused by a vagotonic state or vagal hypersensitivity. In this paper we propose to review the physiopathology, clinical features and diagnostic procedures of these crises.
Development: There are three types of reflex anoxic cerebral crises: asphyxiating anoxic crises, ischemic anoxic crises and asphyxiating-ischemic anoxic crises.
