We define as early seizure (ES) those occurring within 7 days after stroke and late seizures those developing beyond 1 week after stroke. Seizures are well known to occur at the onset of intracerebral hemorrhage and serve as a clinical marker. Onset seizures may be focal or generalized, are usually
For patients with medically intractable epilepsy, there have been few effective alternatives to resective surgery, a destructive, irreversible treatment. A strategy receiving increased attention is using interictal spike patterns and continuous EEG measurements from epileptic patients to predict and
This report examines the impact on development and the problems involved in assessing development in very young children with early-onset intractable seizures, particularly infantile spasms. A review of studies on medically and surgically treated children with infantile spasms underscores the
Over the last decade, the search for a method able to reliably predict seizures hours in advance has been largely replaced by the more realistic goal of very early detection of seizure onset, which would allow therapeutic or warning devices to be triggered prior to the onset of disabling clinical
The immature central nervous system (CNS) should not be considered a miniature of the adult CNS. Seizures and epilepsy affect infants and children more than any other age group. Seizures can manifest themselves differently, depending on age, and can have age-dependent outcomes on development and
Early seizures (ES) may complicate the clinical course of patients with acute stroke. The aim of this study was to assess the frequency and the predictive factors for early seizures as well the clinical outcome in patients with first-ever stroke. A total of 352 consecutive patients with first-ever
