Abstract
Voluntary hyperventilation (VH) is believed to elicit successfully typical absences (TAs), especially in patients with genetic generalized epilepsies (GGE) and absences, including childhood and juvenile absence epilepsy (CAE and JAE) respectively. Failure in recording TAs may lead to diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties. This study evaluated the diagnostic yield of 24-h ambulatory EEG monitoring (EEG/DIN), compared with VH, in patients with suspected or definite TAs/GGE and possible influence of clinical factors on HV efficacy.
