In the present research, an animal model was developed to ascertain the potential effects of gestational drug concentrations and/or maternal seizures on the neonate. The rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta) was the species of choice as previous research has demonstrated its validity as a model for partial
Reported is a patient who noted decreased fetal movements after a seizure at 32 weeks' gestation. Sonography revealed fetal death and findings consistent with an intraventricular hemorrhage. The possible explanations for and the significance of an association between a maternal seizure and fetal
Among 45,000 pregnant women, 21.4 per 1000 (2.1%) reported at least one seizure before or during pregnancy. During the study pregnancy, 4.4 per 1000 had a noneclamptic seizure, and another 4.5 per 1000 had one in the 5 years preceding the study. Stillbirth, microcephaly, mental retardation, and
There are few data to inform a decision to resuscitate babies who are unexpectedly stillborn. The outcome for 42 successfully resuscitated stillborn children, of whom 62% survived to be discharged home, is reported. Of the survivors, a poor outcome with severe disability was found in 23% (including
Neonatal seizures in the neonatal period are symptoms of numerous underlying disorders of the neonate. We present a case in which neonatal seizures due to cerebral infarction led to a diagnosis in the mother. Neonatal convulsions caused by cerebral artery thrombosis is relatively rare in the
We present the case of a 20-year-old student with an undiagnosed pregnancy who had taken ecstasy and LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide). Twenty-four hours later she delivered a stillborn term infant, and subsequently developed eclampsia with seizures, hypertension and proteinuria. Illicit drug use is
OBJECTIVE
To analyze seizure control and treatment in pregnant women with epilepsy.
METHODS
Seizure control and treatment were recorded prospectively in 1,956 pregnancies of 1,882 women with epilepsy participating in EURAP, an international antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) and pregnancy
BACKGROUND
Approximately one million stillbirths occur annually during labour; most of these stillbirths occur in low and middle-income countries and are associated with absent, inadequate, or delayed obstetric care. The low proportion of intrapartum stillbirths in high-income countries suggests
The objective of the study was to assess whether the type of seizure disorder present in the prospective mother with epilepsy, her use of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) in early pregnancy, and her seizure control before pregnancy help predict her prospects for seizure freedom throughout pregnancy.
This
OBJECTIVE
To analyze seizure control, dose adjustments, and other changes of antiepileptic drug (AED) treatment during pregnancy in a large cohort of women with epilepsy entering pregnancy on monotherapy with carbamazepine, lamotrigine, phenobarbital, or valproate.
METHODS
Seizure control and AED
Guidelines for duration of resuscitation of freshly-stillborn term infants and their long term outcome are unclear. The predictive factors of both cerebral palsy and early neonatal demise include Apgar scores of 3 or less at 10 minutes, perinatal acidaemia and neonatal seizures. We describe the case
BACKGROUND
Pregnancy registries provide trustworthy information about the risks associated to antiepileptic drugs (AEDs). EURAP is a Prospective International Registry which include patients who takes AEDs at the time of conception. The data of the Spanish centers which are contributing to EURAP
