फोकल-जब्ती इसके अंग्रेजी अर्थ का उदाहरण

Over forty types of epilepsy are recognized and these are divided into two main groups: focal seizures and generalized seizures.

Michael Barr (disambiguation) Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is a chronic disorder of the nervous system characterized by recurrent, unprovoked focal seizures that originate in the temporal lobe of the [brain|brain] and last about one or two minutes.

A focal seizure is generated in and affects just one part of the brain – a whole hemisphere or part of a lobe.

For example, reading epilepsy may cause myoclonic jerks in the jaw or may cause focal seizures in the regions of the brain responsible for reading.

If a focal seizure spreads from one hemisphere to the other side of the brain, this will give rise to a focal to bilateral seizure.

Photosensitive seizures are often myoclonic, absence, or focal seizures in the occipital lobe, while musicogenic seizures are associated with focal seizures in the temporal lobe.

A focal seizure in the temporal lobe may spread to other areas in the brain when it may become a focal to bilateral seizure.

As of 2017, focal seizures are split into two main categories, focal onset aware, and focal onset impaired awareness.

Reflex seizures can be either generalized or focal seizures or both.

In reflex epilepsy generalized seizures are more common than focal seizures.

When people have multiple focal seizures they generally have a condition known as temporal lobe epilepsy.

Simple focal seizures do not involve the impairment of consciousness but instead may have motor, sensory, or autonomic manifestations.

Complex focal seizures do involve impairment or loss of consciousness.
