Hyphenation for spike and slow wave - A Nobody (Views: 491, 2018-11-21, 1:53 pm)
- I generally see spike-and-wave activity, so makes sense spike-and-slow-wave activity - nm (Views: 362, 2018-11-21, 2:11 pm)
- Wikipedia has spike-and-wave, just add the slow with a hyphen - nm (Views: 322, 2018-11-21, 2:13 pm)
- Looking for a definitive source though ... - A Nobody (Views: 338, 2018-11-21, 2:18 pm)
  - I think a dictionary is a great source - nm (Views: 288, 2018-11-21, 2:21 pm)
    - Not sure what dictionary you're referring to ... - A Nobody (Views: 362, 2018-11-21, 2:33 pm)
      - look below, I posted a website that looks great - nm (Views: 293, 2018-11-21, 2:36 pm)
  - look up eeg terminology on google and it will direct you to many sources, - choose one, nm (Views: 430, 2018-11-21, 2:23 pm)
    - try this site, it looks good - sm (Views: 277, 2018-11-21, 2:32 pm)

        Thank you - A Nobody (Views: 344, 2018-11-21, 2:39 pm)
        for future reference, I just typed in EEG terminology into google - sm (Views: 382, 2018-11-21, 2:42 pm)
  - There are spike waves and slow waves. Spike- and slow-wave activity. nm - nm (Views: 341, 2018-11-22, 12:50 pm)
    - there should be a hyphen with the and also - nm (Views: 323, 2018-11-23, 6:53 am)
      - when it is being used as an adjective - nm
        It's not a combination modifier--defining two activities. - spike-wave activity and low-wave activity. nm (Views: 240, 2018-11-23, 3:59 pm)
        exactly, hence the hyphens spike-and-slow-wave/spike-and-wave discharges, etc.. - nm (Views: 406, 2018-11-26, 6:48 am)
        No. Not when they're hyphenated to begin with. - Not everything you see on Google is correct. nm (Views: 333, 2018-11-27, 9:40 am)
        LOL, I got my information directly from an EEG. - nm (Views: 466, 2018-11-28, 1:23 pm)
        It's a compound modifier, just hyphenate it all words modify activity - nm (Views: 305, 2018-11-28, 1:31 pm)
