DOI: 10.5455/aim.2019.27.234-239
Abstract: Introduction: Electroencephalography can also be used to monitor long-term recovery of the patient after acute phase of the disease. Impaired neurocognitive function after infection, similar to brain injury, may present a transient but also prolonged… read more here.
