Hypoglycemia-Induced Changes in the Electroencephalogram: An Overview.

摘要: Hypoglycemia is defined by an abnormally low blood glucose level. The condition develops when rates of entry into the systematic circulation are reduced relative to uptake tissues. A cardinal manifestation hypoglycemia arises from inadequate supply brain, where primary metabolic fuel. brain one first organs be affected hypoglycemia. Shortage in or neuroglycopenia, results a gradual loss cognitive functions causing slower reaction time, blurred speech, consciousness, seizures, and ultimately death, as progresses. electrical activity represents state cells can measured electroencephalography (EEG). An association between changes EEG has been demonstrated, although levels alone do not seem predict neuroglycopenia. This review provides overview current literature regarding during episodes glucose.
