Description
Summary:The EEGs of 885 healthy subjects of both sexes aged 7 to 89 years were recorded in two modes: with the subjects' eyes closed and with the eyes open. The subjects were divided into 20 age groups, for each of which the normative values of the EEG spectral characteristics were determined: the total EEG power spectra and the EEG independent component power spectra in the Δ, ϑ, α, and β frequency bands. Tables of confidence intervals with a level of confidence of 0.95 were constructed for each electrode channel in the case of the EEG power spectra and for each component in the case of the EEG independent component power spectra. The normative values obtained may provide EEG specialists with objective criteria for assessing cerebral dysfunction.
