Abstract
Studies on animals demonstrated that in experimental herpetic encephalitis there is a diffuse retardation of background bioelectric brain activity and a proxysmal activity of 2 types: peek complex-slow waves 3 per 1 sec. and periodical paroxysmal complexes. There is also an increase of latent periods, duration and amplitudes of visual evoked potentials. Electrophysiological data correlate with the clinical picture of herpetic encephalitis and pathomorphological changes in the CNS. The obtained data are discussed with consideration bor the theory of neuron epileptization and hemodynamical disturbances.
