Traumatic Brain Injury And Epilepsy In this comprehensive review we discuss the epidemiology and risk factors for post traumatic epilepsy and the current pharmacologic agents used for treatment We highlight limitations with the current approach and offer suggestions for remedying the knowledge gap
Traumatic brain injury TBI is one of the commonest presentations to emergency departments and is associated with seizures carrying different significance at different stages following injury We describe the epidemiology of early and late seizures Dec 1 2015 nbsp 0183 32 In this comprehensive review we discuss the epidemiology and risk factors for post traumatic epilepsy and the current pharmacologic agents used for treatment We highlight limitations with the current approach and offer suggestions for remedying the knowledge gap

Post traumatic epilepsy PTE refers to epilepsy that develops after TBI Most investigators agree that PTE is to be distinguished from repeated seizures in the early stage following TBI while the brain is acutely traumatized inflamed and metabolically disrupted We describe the epidemiology of early and late seizures following TBI the significance of intracranial haemorrhage of different types in the risk of later epilepsy and the gaps in current understanding of risk factors contributing to the risk of post traumatic epilepsy PTE
Traumatic brain injury TBI is a leading cause of acquired epilepsy 1 In veterans 57 of seizures can be linked to TBI 2 Immediately following injury the brain undergoes distinct electrophysiological changes which can be detected with electroencephalography 3 Mar 28 2009 nbsp 0183 32 Background The risk of epilepsy shortly after traumatic brain injury is high but how long this high risk lasts is unknown We aimed to assess the risk of epilepsy up to 10 years or longer after traumatic brain injury taking into account sex age severity and family history
