Generalised tonic=only tonic phase noted Generalised clonic=rythmic paddling/limb jerking- no tonic phase Atonic=sudden loss of muscle tone with possible collapse Myoclonic= brief, shock like contractions Absence= brief loss of consciousness, specific EEG pattern
Focal seizures:
ASYMMETRIC clinical signs that indicate abnormal electrical activity in ONE REGION of the forebrain.
Simple focal seizures: seizures in which consciousness is MAINTAINED. Complex focal seizures: seizures in which consciousness is IMPAIRED.
