BLOOD PRESSURE ALTERATIONS SECONDARY TO AMYGDALOID AND PERIAMYGDALOID AFTER-DISCHARGES

Abstract
The effects of brain stem stimulation were studied in 46 cats. Electrical stimulation of the rostral mesencephalon and posterior hypothalamus had a tendency to reduce seizure duration. Both immediate and prolonged effects were noted. Posterior thalamic stimulation appeared to have the opposite tendency. The presence or absence of activation did not influence the discharge duration. Electrical patterns of the after-discharges were not altered by brain stem stimulation.
