Known epileptic seizure Epilepsy causes and treatment
Epilepsy disease that has baffled researchers, but their knowledge is constantly evolving, where she appeared more effective medicines and improved detection techniques far, doctors also reached new methods in surgery,
and open the door of hope in research on the relationship of this hereditary disease.
Flashes on epilepsy
Epilepsy problem healthy nervous manifested by seizures and epileptic crises resulting from automatic discharge of nerve cells that are in the case of excessive irritation can be likened to electrical storm, and produces these movements and Nubia condition beyond the control of the patient.
Epilepsy problem healthy nervous manifested by seizures and epileptic crises resulting from automatic discharge of nerve cells that are in the case of excessive irritation can be likened to electrical storm, and produces these movements and Nubia condition beyond the control of the patient.
And could continue this disease for months or stays for life, with interruptions for ten years on average, and recover 50% of children infected with the disease when they reach adolescence, while having the rest of the inherent medicines which are often effective and enable them to normal life.
This disease does not detract from the old nor intelligence, nor destroy the brain,
contrary to what could come to mind,
especially when we note the patient's
condition during a seizure, for example,
when involuntarily falls on his head or when shaking vibration.
And produces epilepsy in 5 to
10 percent of cases result genetic factors and in 40
percent of cases result imbalance in the brain (warp or
trauma to the skull or a tumor ...), and active crises epileptic assisted factors Kaltab and alcohol intake, and remains a source of this disease is not known when half of the infected cases. The situation in which it has a patient with epilepsy had it not
to do certain tasks or take certain professions Xyakh truck or car public transport or work in a
high place above the
ground or affectation machines serious,
and the remaining validity of the doctor concerned and doctor work to determine the possibility of the patient something .
Types and
symptoms of epilepsy:There
are two types of this disease: epilepsy (30% of cases) and partial epilepsy (70%
of cases).
Vaba partial reflected in a certain area of the brain and the symptoms vary according to the affected area and sometimes it is difficult to know it epileptic fit, and be simple partial seizures or complex as infected if they kept in touch with his surroundings or not. And can sometimes be transformed to an epileptic seizure where electrical storm begins in a specific area of the brain to spread thereafter in the rest of the brain, with the following inventory of some of the symptoms depending on the type of epilepsy:
Simple partial seizure symptoms:
Maintains the patient to touch with reality
Suffers from sporadic problems (difficulty speaking properly, spasms and tremors members, skew audio and video ...)
Problems in the senses (smell and taste different ...)
Stomach problems
Sense بالغم and fear
Nuba period of seconds to three minutes
Complex partial seizure symptoms:
Circumstantial loss of touch with reality
And automatic mechanism infected where, for example, movements without a goal and mumbled and shows chewing movements
Patient does not maintain any memory of Nubia
Nuba period of seconds to three minutes
Symptoms of a heart:
Loss of consciousness and falling
Muscle stiffness
Spasm and convulsions rhythmically
Frequent salivary secretions
Coma and muscle relaxation may occur with urination or feces exit
There is often vomiting
Confusion when vigilance
Patient does not maintain any memory of Nubia
For Nuba 3 or 4 minutes, but sometimes it can wait 20 minutes before returning to the original state
The development of scientific research in disease detection and tracking:Doctor's diagnosis focuses on the description of the patient's condition during the crisis, epilepsy, or the results of the electrical activity of the brain. Says Professor Michel Polak brain and nerve specialist and head of a Paris hospital: MRI can understand the cause of the disease because it reveals parts of the brain affected. The antiepileptic drugs do not affect the same way, he must try several drugs before reaching the appropriate medication, and sometimes the patient must eat two or three types of drugs, at the same time.
In recent years emerged new drugs enabled to improve the lives of patients and can stop taking them after a few years, but 30 per cent of diseases epilepsy still resist these drugs, and if the affected area of the brain accessible it can make surgical intervention, especially and that advances in medical imaging made it possible to determine the foci responsible for this disease. In the past they were filming the brain at a given moment but today, thanks to functional magnetic resonance imaging enables experts from filming the brain activity during times of crisis or before epilepsy. And if you do not benefit this way it can enter a very small electrodes in the deeper areas of the brain, driven by a special machine experts in the direction of predefined places where there are still a few days to record seizures. Thanks to these surgical techniques have become more accurate as they managed to avoid harm healthy brain areas talking, seeing, remembering ...
And researchers currently studying molecules that can affect the brain to prevent epilepsy in individuals qualified injury this disease such as those with a genetic predisposition or injured tumors or Bredh in the skull, so that interfere these molecules to resist generation neuromodulation is natural and electrical charges that lead to get seizures.
