next test Flashcards
synchronized
high amplitude (high voltage) and low frequency
EEG-
electroencephalogram
Desynchronized
low amptitude (low voltage) and high frequency (looks like the lie detector test lines)
What important about the high and low amptitude
thats when the nueons are firing together. When you got all firing at the same time like.
When combined it created high wave (long wave)
when its high amptutde
that means tthat all neurons are working together.. coming together
insynchroning
synchornized
out of synchroning
desynchronized (low amplitude)
when you alert are you in high amptitude or low
low amptitude eeg_ desynchronized (neurons firing differently (independent) ffrom each other
drowsy low or high amptitude and why >
high aptitude eeg= synchronized neuroal firing (neurons firing in rythyn (together ) from one another.
EOG
eye movements
EMG
MUSCLE TENSION
Eeg
BRAIN WAVES
3 Stages of sleep
EEG- Electroencephalogram
EOG- Electrooculogram
EMG- Eelectromyogram
What do the waves look like when someone is awake?
low voltage, high frequency
the lines are small and fast
Alpha waves?
It happens right before sleep.
When eyes are shut and prepares to go to sleep.
What Hz EEG waves do alpha waves have?
8 to 12 Hz
What happens to the voltage and frequency as someone is falling asleep?
the voltage increases and frequency decreases.
