Therefore, it appears that there is a case for commencing anticonvulsant therapy if a patient is seen in the first few months after a single unprovoked seizure which is of a partial type, or if abnormalities are present on neurological examination, or if the EEG shows paroxysmal activity. Anti...
1,3 Treatment for febrile seizures is based on treating the underlying cause of the fever and giving reassurance and education to the parents. 2 Mortality is extremely rare, and there is no difference in the patient’s cognitive abilities after a febrile seizure, even when the seizure is ...

(SE) is common especially in the patient’s first 5 years. Beyond the age of 5 years, seizure frequency begins to decrease, with a gradual transition with age to nocturnal seizures, which are the main type of seizures in adults. Nocturnal seizures can also pose challenges including sleep ...
Evaluating to what extent XAI4EEG is suited to fit medical education [57], i.e. for prospective medical experts in NICUs, is also a point to be addressed in future work. Furthermore, there is scope to improve the performance of our seizure detection methods, e.g. by processing the ...
EEG data, characterized by detailed time-based patterns, benefits from accuracy and timely analysis by the LSTM, ultimately improving patient care and treatment outcomes. This model uses an LSTM layer, consisting of 128 units, designed specifically to process the time-dependent patterns in EEG data...
