Seizures are abnormal electrical discharges in the brain that can be caused by any disorder that affects a low concentration of sugar, calcium, sodium, magnesium or vitamin B6 in the blood until a drug withdrawal, high or meningitis.
In an episode of seizure, the upper and lower limbs of the individual shake rhythmically. In children, there may be chewing movements or a straying look. Sudden changes in respiratory rate or heart rate may also occur.
Exams such as ultrasound, computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain or even the electroencephalogram (EEG) are indicated to determine the cause of the seizure disorder.
Persistent seizures can be treated with drugs such as phenobarbital and phenytoin.
