This original research compares children with a rare EEG pattern (Bi-Frontal Spikes with Simultaneous Bi-Occipital Positivity, BFOD) to controls to determine its clinical significance. The study found that children with BFOD had significantly higher rates of severe developmental delay, considerable motor deficits (GMFCS โฅ4), and structural/multilobar brain abnormalities. The conclusion suggests that BFOD is a marker of severe underlying brain dysfunction and is not benign when encountered on routine EEG review.
