Can you please explain this report in plain English? Here is my EEG report Thomas was brought to the department in a wheel-chair but he is usually mobile. He was alert and cooperative, but complained of memory problems. The EEG is dominated by a well-formed and sustainee alpha rhythm at about 9-10Hz and up to 70uV which is symmetrical and responsive. Low-voltage fast rhythms at 14-22Hz are diffuse while a fair amount of irregular theta activity is widely scattered and at times underlie the ongoing dominant rhythm. Occasional maturational type slow waves underlie the post temperoal activities at times On occasions there is subtle hint of an emphasis of the slow activities over the right posterior temporal region. Mu rhythms at 9-10 Hz intermittently occur centrally. A single burst of slow components at about 2.8Hz and up to 90uV stands out from the background over the right anterior-mid temporal region A very good attempt at hyperventilation for 3 minutes mildly enhances the background slow activities, which also occur in a couple of fairly generalised bursts with frontal emphasis. The EEG reveals mild diffuse background slowing, in keeping with the clinical history of cognitive decline.
