Psychogenic non-epileptic seizures.
Psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES) need to be differentiated from epileptic seizures as the management varies for both. Presence of tongue biting, falling and urinary incontinence favors a diagnosis of epileptic seizures. We report two children with features suggestive of epileptic seizures that were eventually diagnosed as PNES with the help of video-EEG monitoring.
متن کاملComparing maximum autonomic activity of psychogenic non-epileptic seizures and epileptic seizures using heart rate variability
PURPOSE The semiology of psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES) can resemble epileptic seizures, and differentiation between epileptic seizures with no EEG-correlate and PNES can be challenging even for trained experts. Therefore, there has been a search for a quantitative measure, other than EEG and semiology that could distinguish PNES from epileptic seizures. We used ECG to measure heart ...
متن کاملIctal injury in psychogenic non-epileptic seizures
PURPOSE Whilst ictal injuries in psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES) have been reported previously, very few studies have described the spectrum of ictal injuries in these patients. In the current study, we tried to determine the spectrum of reported ictal injuries associated with PNES and to investigate the possible associated risk factors. METHODS All patients with PNES were recruited...
متن کاملNon-Epileptic Psychogenic Seizures: a Neurologist’s Perspective
Psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES) represent a relatively frequent challenge for clinicians. While they resemble epileptic seizures, they are not the consequence of paroxysmal electrical discharges in the brain, but are related to psychological triggers in vulnerable subjects. Gold standard of PNES diagnosis remains the recording of a typical event under video-EEG. PNES recognition is no...
متن کاملPsychogenic non-epileptic seizures: management and prognosis.
AIM To determine the outcome and identify predictive factors in children with psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES). METHOD The biographies of 35 children with PNES, attending a tertiary paediatric neurology centre, were reviewed. RESULTS Thirty five children attending the department between 1987 and 1997 were evaluated at a mean follow up of 4.6 years. The age range was 6-18 years. Twe...
