Abstract

The specificity and sensitivity of positive rolandic sharp waves (PRSW) on serial EEGs for the diagnosis of periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) in premature infants was studied in 83 newborn cases (11% of 765 premature infants) treated at the Hopital Antoine Beclere, Assistance Publique/Hopitaux de Paris, Clamart, France.
