Patient/caregiver was instructed upon the reasons for seizure development as follows: Seizures are caused by sudden, abnormal, increased electrical discharge in the brain. This sudden increased electrical activity in the brain can be secondary to the following reasons. Any episodes of trauma involving the brain, such as mechanical injury sustained during falls and accidents, can result in excessive electrical discharge leading to seizure development. Compromised blood supply to parts of brain, secondary to any clot formation or [...]

Patient/caregiver was instructed upon the pathophysiology of seizures as follows: Nerve impulses in the brain are transmitted from one cell to the other as mild electrical impulses. Many factors such as, neurotransmitters in the brain, sodium and glucose concentrations in the blood, bacterial infections, blood and oxygen supply to the brain, and mechanical injury to the brain play a significant role in influencing these nerve impulses in the brain. Some of these factors can act [...]
