Title Treatment of Symptomatic Square Wave Jerks
Creator Koski, Karen A; Rosenberg, Michael L; Goldberg, Michael; FitzGibbon, Edmond J
Subject Square Wave Jerks; Reticular Activating System; Methylphenidate; Ritalin
Description We hypothesized that frequent square wave jerks might be a manifestation of decreased vigilance of the reticular activating system (RAS). Methylphenidate (Ritalin) stimulates the RAS, increasing attention, and would be expected to decrease the frequency of square wave jerks.
