hemorrhage/seizures

Case report of a 4-year-old boy with beta-thalassaemia who developed a syndrome of hypertension, convulsions and cerebral haemorrhage after multiple blood transfusions. He made a complete recovery within 25 days.

Six fatal cases of post-transfusion hypertension, convulsions and cerebral hemorrhage syndrome were found in a series of 76 autopsies of thalassemic patients. Five of these cases were hypertensive. At autopsy the brains were all markedly edematous and congested. Visible cerebral hemorrhages were

We report a 35-year-old man who presented with pulmonary hemorrhage induced by an epileptic seizure. He had experienced recurrent episodes of massive hemoptysis after epileptic seizures since the age of 28 years. He was admitted to Kyoto University Hospital with massive hemoptysis and hypoxia after

Social autopsy is an innovative approach to explore social barriers and factors associated to a death in the community. The process also sensitize the community people to avert future deaths. Social autopsy has been introduced in maternal deaths in Bangladesh first time in 2010. This study is to

This case report describes a pregnant woman of gestational week 37 + 2 days who was admitted to the hospital with first-time seizures. The patient was stabilized, and an acute caesarian section was performed due to the possible aetiology of eclampsia and the advanced gestational age. Because of the

This study compared the results of neurodevelopmental examination at 6 months' corrected age of premature infants with neonatal seizures and/or intracranial hemorrhage and normal premature infants. There was a statistically significant correlation (p=0.000007) between intracranial hemorrhage and

We investigated potential disparities in the use of prophylactic seizure medications in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage. Review of multicenter electronic health record (EHR) data with simultaneous prospective data recording. EHR data were retrieved from HealthLNK, a multicenter EHR repository

A 17-year-old male patient presented to the emergency department (ED) with seizures after sexual intercourse. The patient was found to have an intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) likely secondary to sexual intercourse and concomitant amphetamine use, an extremely rare finding in this patient population.

Serial ultrasound scans and conventional and diffusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were performed on 16 neonates who presented with seizures. The Apgar scores were normal and subsequently no metabolic or infective cause could be found. The aim of the study was to evaluate the extent to

After a normal pregnancy and labour in a 29-year-old parturient, a single seizure followed by a transient headache was observed during the uterine revision for placental retention. Mild uterine haemorrhage of 150 ml per hour without any uterine atony was associated with activation of clotting and

UNASSIGNED Primary intraventricular hemorrhage (pIVH) uncommonly presents with seizures. There are no prior data regarding the frequency of seizures, periodic and rhythmic patterns on continuous electroencephalography (EEG), (cEEG) in these patients. UNASSIGNED We retrospectively assessed frequency

We present two cases of infants with hyponatremic seizures who had an unexpected finding of retinal hemorrhages. A review of the literature found no prior association between hyponatremic seizures and retinal hemorrhages. The retinal hemorrhages found in the first patient were a result of shaken

Fluorometry and dual-wave-length spectrophotometry were used to detect transitory shifts in the redox state of mitochondrial NADH and cytochrome aa3 in the exposed cerebral cortex of anesthetized paralyzed cats as seizures were induced with pentylenetetrazol. In normotensive animals, NADH and

OBJECTIVE The impact of seizures on outcomes in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is not well understood, with conflicting results published in the literature. METHODS For this retrospective cohort analysis, data from the Nationwide Inpatient Samples (NIS) for 2006-2011 were utilized. All
