comment
Spikes (<70 ms) and sharp waves (70-200 ms) are sharp transient waves that have a strong association with epilepsy. No difference is noted in terms of clinical significance of spikes and sharp waves. Significant spikes usually are followed by a slow wave.

The presence of complexes of slow spikes and slow waves (<2.5 Hz) in electroencephalography (EEG).
