Patient's question:
All symptoms: Eyes suddenly staring blankly and losing consciousness for three or four secondsOnset time and cause: Yesterday
Treatment status: Only realized
Help needed: Urgently want to know what is wrong with the child.
Doctor's answer:
In the case of a child, it cannot be ruled out that epilepsy may be involved! It is best to have a 24-hour dynamic EEG performed on the child for evaluation! If it is epilepsy, timely medication treatment is necessary. Treatment includes medication, surgery, and neuromodulation therapy, with medication as the primary approach. After standardized anti-epileptic drug treatment, approximately 70% of patients can have their seizures controlled, and among them, 50% to 60% can be cured after 2 to 5 years of treatment, allowing them to work and live like normal people. Therefore, rational and standardized anti-epileptic drug treatment is key.
