ToggleRecurrent seizures caused by neurological conditions are followed by episodes of strange behaviour and, occasionally, loss of awareness and orientation—the aberrant electric activity in the brain that causes seizures. However, seizures are not harmful unless the patient is driving or travelling, which may be fatal.
The following categories of seizures have been created based on the abnormal brain activity they exhibit:
Including meningitis, HIV/AIDS, stroke, brain tumour, high-grade fever, traumatic brain injury, lack of oxygen to the brain, brain scarring, and post-traumatic epilepsy.
Options include brain surgery, vague nerve stimulation, deep brain stimulation, responsive neurostimulation, and anti-epileptic medications such as lamotrigine, carbamazepine, and topiramate.
Risk factors include age, family history, and stroke. Common in children, although it can happen to anyone at any age. Brain infections and complications from dementia
Risks to mother and child include fractures sustained while driving, drowning when swimming, depression and anxiety, suicidal thoughts, and pregnancy difficulties.
