The Space–Time Organisation of Sleep Slow Oscillations as Potential Biomarker for Hypersomnolence
ABSTRACT Research suggests that the spatial profile of slow wave activity (SWA) could be altered in hypersomnolence. Slow oscillations (SOs; 0.5–1.5 Hz), single waveform events contributing to SWA, can be labelled as Global, Frontal, or Local depending on their presentation on the scalp.
