Epilepsy refers to disorders of the brain caused by excessive electrical activity. Symptoms of the disorder include blank staring and changes in autonomic function. Seizures can be grouped into generalized and partial. These can also be classified by the type of seizures they induce. Generalized seizures are also known as tonic or clonic seizures. Partial seizures are generally less severe and usually last for less than five minutes.
 
 One of the most important functions of epilepsy is the isolation of the'seizure focus', a small region of the brain that is discharging neurons abnormally.  https://epilepsyseizure.co.nz/epilepsy-alarm/  By surgically removing the focus, the seizures can be avoided from spreading to the normal brain. Medications used in the treatment of epilepsy include sodium channel blockers and calcium channel blockers. A GABA transaminase inhibitor may be added to the regimen.
 
 Epilepsy can be diagnosed using at least two uninduced seizures. Clinical tests for epilepsy include changes in consciousness, changes in mental events, sensation, and changes in autonomy. In addition to the usual suspects, patients with uremia and high blood pressure may also exhibit seizure-like symptoms. Brain tumors and phenylketonuria may also cause seizure-like symptoms.
 
 The most important part of any seizure-related test is its clinical relevance. Seizures are common in children and can be serious medical problems. They may interfere with daily activities. Hence, proper diagnosis and treatment is essential to the patient's well-being. Although antiepileptic drugs do little to treat the underlying cause of the disorder, they can help alleviate the symptoms.
