    Abstract

    Three anoxic comatose children had EEG alpha-like activity and in two of them mu rhythm was recorded. The paradoxical appearance of these electrical activities in comatose children seems to indicate a grave prognosis. A possible role for barbiturate treatment in this phenomenon is not excluded.
