Febrile seizures are the most common type of seizures disorder of young children. The risk of recurrences are 33 percent overall, half of them had at least one recurrent seizure (the 3rd febrile seizures). After that the recurrent rate is 50-100 percent depend on their risk factors. A few studies
Lung cancer is the most common cancer, accounting for 20% of cancer-related deaths worldwide. In 2015, an estimated 610,200 patients (22 per cent of cancer-related deaths) died of lung cancer. Non-small cell lung cancer ((NSCLC)) accounts for 80% to 85% of lung cancer. Most patients are locally
Alcohol withdrawal syndrome AWS (Alcohol Withdrawal Syndrome), is defined as the appearance of two or more data of autonomic hyperactivity, nausea, hallucinations and seizures associated with cessation of alcohol consumption. For its evaluation, the CIWA-Ar (Clinical Institute Withdrawal Assessment

To evaluate the efficacy of oral melatonin compared to oral diazepam for prevention of recurrence of simple febrile seizures in children aged 6 months to 5 years.
In a 50-patient, single-centre pilot trial of phenobarbital as an adjunctive treatment for severe acute alcohol withdrawal syndrome (AAWS), the PHENOMANAL trial will demonstrate the ability to recruit, consent, and randomize participants and adhere to the assigned treatment protocol with minimal
The investigators will implement an intervention jointly with a simulation program to determine the most effective training model: verbal instructions, instructional video, or use of a mannequin. Caregivers will undergo a training curriculum, and 60 caregivers (20 assigned to each educational model)
Generally, Benign epilepsy with centro-temporal spikes is characterized by infrequent focal sensorimotor seizures in the face during sleep, which may secondarily generalize, along with spike-wave discharges, reflecting nonlesional cortical excitability from rolandic regions.
The prognosis is usually
The Primary objective of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of DBSF (study drug) administered to subjects with epilepsy for the treatment of seizures over a minimum 12-month period.
Secondary objectives of the study are;

The traditional treatment for refractory status epilepticus includes diazepam, midazolam, valproic acid, thiopental and propofol. These medications fail to control seizure activity in 20-40% of patients. This is attributed to decrease in activity of gamma-aminobutyric acid receptors along with
After the failure of first-line diazepam treatment, patients with GCSE are randomized to receive either IV PB (standard doses, low rate) or VPA (standard). Successful treatment is considered when clinical and electroencephalographic seizure activity ceases. Adverse events following treatment and the

In our study patients were considered to have RSE if children were still having active convulsions despite receiving injection lorazepam intravenously at a dose of 0.1 mg/kg (max 4 mg) at a rate maximum upto 2 mg/min or intravenous diazepam at a dose of 0.2 - 0.3 mg/Kg (maximum 10 mg) slowly or
Diazepam rectal gel (Diastat) is the only formulation of diazepam indicated for the management of selected, refractory patients with epilepsy on stable regimens of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) who require intermittent use of diazepam to control bouts of increased seizure activity, i.e., Acute
