Neurostimulation for Epilepsy

pathology of epilepsy

Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder characterized by sudden and recurrent seizures brought on by an excess or absence of nerve cell signaling in the brain. Convulsions, lapses of consciousness, strange body movements or sensations, strange behaviors, and emotional disturbances are all symptoms of seizures. Typically lasting between one and two minutes, epileptic seizures can be followed by weakness, confusion, or unresponsiveness. Epilepsy is a disorder that affects between 40 and 50 million people worldwide and is relatively common. Males are slightly more likely than females to experience it. Brain defects, head trauma, infectious diseases, stroke, brain tumors, and genetic or developmental anomalies are some of the causes of the disorder. Hereditary causes exist for a number of epileptic disorders.
