Factors influencing the duration of generalized tonic–clonic seizure
PURPOSE This study investigated the duration of generalized tonic-clonic seizure (GTCS) and the factors that prolong GTCS duration. METHOD We retrospectively analyzed clinical data collected from a consecutive group of patients who underwent video-electroencephalography (EEG) and experienced at least one GTCS during monitoring. Each seizure was divided into seven phases. The duration of GTCS ...
متن کاملCarotid dissection following a generalized tonic-clonic seizure.
A 37-year-old woman experienced a generalized tonic-clonic seizure. Subsequent to the seizure, the patient observed left-sided face and neck pain. A left Horner syndrome was noted on examination. AnMRI and magnetic resonance angiogram revealed a left skull base carotid artery dissection without infarction (figure, A and B). Previous MRI had shown normal carotid flow voids.

متن کاملType 2 Myocardial Infarction Following Generalized Tonic-Clonic Seizure
Myocardial infarction is diagnosed when blood levels of biomarkers are increased in the clinical setting of acute myocardial ischemia. Among the biomarkers, troponin I is the preferred biomarker indicative of myocardial necrosis. It is tissue specific for the heart. Myocardial infarction is rarely reported following seizure. We report a case of elevated troponin I in a patient after an episode ...
متن کاملThe research of the generalized tonic-clonic seizure epilepsy by resting state fMRI
In this study, we investigated the human brain functional network of patients with generalized tonic and clonic seizure (GTCS) epilepsy by using the resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and complex network theory. Adjacency matrices of the networks of GTCS group and normal control group were constructed by the method of Pearson correlation coefficient. A intra-group analys...
متن کاملPerampanel for tonic-clonic seizures in idiopathic generalized epilepsy
OBJECTIVE To assess efficacy and safety of adjunctive perampanel in patients with drug-resistant, primary generalized tonic-clonic (PGTC) seizures in idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE). METHODS In this multicenter, double-blind study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01393743; funded by Eisai Inc.), patients 12 years or older with PGTC seizures and IGE were randomized to placebo or peramp...
