  1. delta wave

    A delta wave is a type of high amplitude brain wave pattern that is commonly associated with deep stages of sleep (including REM), and is most prevalent in infants and young children. It is also found in other states of unconsciousness such as in cases of severe brain injury or coma. Delta waves are typically defined as having a frequency of 1–4 Hz. The presence of delta waves in adults while awake can be an indicator of physical disorders or brain injury.
