This is a comprehensive reference covering all aspects of epilepsy and seizures. Here is a quick orientation to the sections:
What's covered above:
| Section | Key Content |
|---|---|
| 1. Definitions | ILAE 2014 definition of epilepsy, seizure, status epilepticus |
| 2. Epidemiology | 50 million globally, incidence/prevalence data, age patterns |
| 3. Etiology | Structural, genetic, metabolic, immune, infectious, unknown |
| 4. Classification | ILAE 2017 focal vs. generalized; all seizure subtypes with descriptions |
| 5. Pathophysiology | Excitation/inhibition imbalance, PDS, channelopathies, hippocampal sclerosis, genetics |
| 6. Clinical Presentation | Auras by localization, tonic-clonic phases, postictal features |
| 7. Investigations | EEG, MRI protocol, blood tests, LP, genetic/autoimmune workup |
| 8. Management/Treatment | Acute first aid → Status epilepticus protocol → Chronic ASMs (full table) → Surgery → VNS/RNS/DBS → Ketogenic diet |
| 9. Drug-induced seizures | Metabolic causes; ineffectiveness of ASMs if underlying cause not treated |
| 10. Prevention | Primary, secondary, tertiary prevention strategies |
| 11. Special populations | Pregnancy, elderly, children |
| 12. Prognosis | 70% seizure-free; pharmacoresistance; surgical outcomes; SUDEP |
| 13. References | 15 authoritative references (textbooks + ILAE + AAN + PubMed) |
