OBJECTIVE
Urinary incontinence may occur both in epileptic seizures (ES) and in non-epileptic events (NEE) such as psychogenic nonepileptic events (PNEEs) and syncope. A comprehensive search of the literature to determine the accuracy of this physical finding and its prevalence in epileptic seizures
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to characterise seizure-related adverse events during video-electroencephalography (vEEG) monitoring.
METHODS
Our study evaluated adverse events in 230 epilepsy patients during vEEG monitoring while patients were awake and asleep.
RESULTS
A total of 588 seizures
The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of dramatic presentations of psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES) (i.e., urine incontinence and ictal injury) and to characterize the patients' historical risk factors that may be associated with such dramatic Video-EEG monitoring disclosed absence seizures in five patients who were treated for partial seizures. Analysis of the historical and video data showed the presence of several potentially misleading ictal manifestations as follows: unidirectional head and/or eye turning, symmetric clonic activity,
OBJECTIVE
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
OBJECTIVE
Oral lacerations and urinary incontinence have long been considered useful clinical features for the diagnosis of epileptic seizures; however, both are also reported in patients with psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES). The aims of the study were (1) to investigate whether the
Purpose: We conducted a multicenter international cross-cultural comparative study to investigate clinical semiology and predisposing factors of functional seizures in a large cohort of patients living in different countries around the
BACKGROUND
Epilepsy is a chronic disease and the control of seizures is central to its management. While seizure frequency has been the traditional index of epilepsy control. severity of seizures is probably as important as seizure frequency in this regard. Seizure severity scales have therefore
The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of antiepileptic drug (AED) use in patients with psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES) and to characterize the patients' historical risk factors that may be associated with such a practice.In this A recently proposed diagnostic class, psychotic trigger reaction, is deduced from careful clinical studies of eight white men, who upon a very specific trigger stimulus committed murder or attempted to (and in one case also rape). The new class is defined as a sudden ego-alien, motiveless (at least
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
OBJECTIVE
A case of apparent seizure and atrial fibrillation associated with paliperidone is reported.
CONCLUSIONS
A 46-year-old man arrived at the emergency room (ER) via ambulance. Earlier that morning, his wife observed him awakening in a panic, drifting back to sleep, and then subsequently
We report herein the case of 32-year-old woman with situs inversus, thrombophilia, antiphospholipid syndrome and severe premenstrual syndrome (PMS) with cerebral edema and epileptic seizures prior to menstruation. Seven days prior to regular menstruation she developed severe PMS, including headache,
We describe the first well documented case of overflow urinary incontinence owing to prolonged carbamazepine treatment for temporal lobe seizures. Carbamazepine increased the bladder capacity to 1,700 ml. and was accompanied by symptoms of urgency and frequency. After carbamazepine was discontinued
