Febrile seizure (within the age range of 3 months to 6 years)- MedGen UID:
- 3232
- •Concept ID:
- C0009952
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
A febrile seizure is any type of seizure (most often a generalized tonic-clonic seizure) occurring with fever (at least 38 degrees Celsius) but in the absence of central nervous system infection, severe metabolic disturbance or other alternative precipitant in children between the ages of 3 months and 6 years.
Status epilepticus- MedGen UID:
- 11586
- •Concept ID:
- C0038220
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Status epilepticus is a type of prolonged seizure resulting either from the failure of the mechanisms responsible for seizure termination or from the initiation of mechanisms which lead to abnormally prolonged seizures (after time point t1). It is a condition that can have long-term consequences (after time point t2), including neuronal death, neuronal injury, and alteration of neuronal networks, depending on the type and duration of seizures.
Focal impaired awareness seizure- MedGen UID:
- 543022
- •Concept ID:
- C0270834
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Focal impaired awareness seizure (or focal seizure with impaired or lost awareness) is a type of focal-onset seizure characterized by some degree (which may be partial) of impairment of the person's awareness of themselves or their surroundings at any point during the seizure.
Atonic seizure- MedGen UID:
- 78735
- •Concept ID:
- C0270846
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Atonic seizure is a type of motor seizure characterized by a sudden loss or diminution of muscle tone without apparent preceding myoclonic or tonic event lasting about 1 to 2 seconds, involving head, trunk, jaw, or limb musculature.
Epileptic encephalopathy- MedGen UID:
- 452596
- •Concept ID:
- C0543888
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
A condition in which epileptiform abnormalities are believed to contribute to the progressive disturbance in cerebral function. Epileptic encephalaopathy is characterized by (1) electrographic EEG paroxysmal activity that is often aggressive, (2) seizures that are usually multiform and intractable, (3) cognitive, behavioral and neurological deficits that may be relentless, and (4) sometimes early death.
Global developmental delay- MedGen UID:
- 107838
- •Concept ID:
- C0557874
- •
- Finding
A delay in the achievement of motor or mental milestones in the domains of development of a child, including motor skills, speech and language, cognitive skills, and social and emotional skills. This term should only be used to describe children younger than five years of age.
Focal hemiclonic seizure- MedGen UID:
- 335477
- •Concept ID:
- C1846620
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
A type of focal clonic seizure characterized by sustained rhythmic jerking rapidly involves one side of the body at seizure onset.
EEG with photoparoxysmal response- MedGen UID:
- 765735
- •Concept ID:
- C3552821
- •
- Finding
EEG abnormalities (epileptiform discharges) evoked by flashing lights or black and white striped patterns.
Intellectual disability- MedGen UID:
- 811461
- •Concept ID:
- C3714756
- •
- Mental or Behavioral Dysfunction
Intellectual disability, previously referred to as mental retardation, is characterized by subnormal intellectual functioning that occurs during the developmental period. It is defined by an IQ score below 70.
EEG with spike-wave complexes- MedGen UID:
- 869259
- •Concept ID:
- C4023683
- •
- Finding
Complexes of spikes (<70 ms) and sharp waves (70-200 ms), which are sharp transient waves that have a strong association with epilepsy, in cerebral electrical activity recorded along the scalp by electroencephalography (EEG).
Generalized non-motor (absence) seizure- MedGen UID:
- 1385688
- •Concept ID:
- C4316903
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
A generalized non-motor (absence) seizure is a type of a type of dialeptic seizure that is of electrographically generalized onset. It is a generalized seizure characterized by an interruption of activities, a blank stare, and usually the person will be unresponsive when spoken to. Any ictal motor phenomena are minor in comparison to these non-motor features.
Myoclonic seizure- MedGen UID:
- 1385980
- •Concept ID:
- C4317123
- •
- Sign or Symptom
A myoclonic seizure is a type of motor seizure characterized by sudden, brief (<100 ms) involuntary single or multiple contraction of muscles or muscle groups of variable topography (axial, proximal limb, distal). Myoclonus is less regularly repetitive and less sustained than is clonus.
