Patient's question:
My child is 4 years old. I want to ask, what should I do if a child with epilepsy has a recurrence during sleep? I don't understand either.Doctor's answer:
When a child with epilepsy has an acute recurrence during sleep, first, parents should try their best to position the child's head sideways to prevent aspiration and airway obstruction. If possible, oxygen therapy should be provided. Second, for epilepsy patients, it is important to take antiepileptic drugs on time, such as levetiracetam, sodium valproate, etc. Meanwhile, patients should maintain a light diet in daily life, avoid catching colds, and prevent being affected. Finally, wish you a speedy recovery.
