How do I get first aid for a seizure?

  Many people have seen seizures, sudden onset, unconsciousness, generalized convulsions with screaming, urinary incontinence, foaming at the mouth, and in some cases, no foaming and drooling at the corners of the mouth. In many places, it is called “crohn’s disease” or “sheep epilepsy”. It is frightening when patients have seizures, and frequent seizures can cause serious harm to patients.  How to give first aid for a seizure?  The first thing you need to do is to find out that the epileptic patient is going to have a seizure, quickly help the patient lie down, move the dangerous objects around or on the patient that may hurt the patient, use a soft thing to pad under the patient’s head to avoid the patient’s head hitting the hard ground, resulting in head hands or intracranial bleeding, do not move the patient, untie the patient’s collar, cuffs, belt, and let the patient breathe freely.  2, general seizure patients will appear regular jerking of the limbs or head, the whole body is a tense, twisted jerking posture, this time do not forcefully press the patient’s body, but let it seize, the seizure will stop after a few minutes. If forced to press, may lead to sprains or fractures of the patient or press personnel, do not move the patient, in its side to closely observe the patient’s heartbeat, breathing situation.  3. Do not forcefully pry open the patient’s teeth and place objects. Many people will feel that epileptic patients seizure, teeth clenching, worry about the patient bite off the tongue, and to force pry open the patient’s teeth, placing chopsticks, towels and other items, this is not appropriate, may hurt the patient’s teeth, gums, tongue, oral mucosa and other tissues, resulting in more bleeding, when the blood clot in the mouth is easy to block the respiratory tract, resulting in the death of the patient suffocation.  4, epileptic patients may have foaming at the mouth during seizures, more respiratory secretions, if not handled in time, it is easy to cause obstruction of the patient’s airway or aspiration pneumonia, should be at the termination of the seizure, gently wipe the patient’s oral secretions, place the patient’s head and body in a lateral position, tiptoe up the head to avoid secretions accidentally into the airway.  The above are the first aid measures for seizures, but with epilepsy also need timely treatment, epilepsy is due to abnormal discharge of neurons in the brain, each seizure suddenly, at any time, at any time, unpredictable, bringing great harm to the patient’s life safety. There are now clinically effective drugs, as well as surgical treatments (including lesion excision and vagus nerve electrical stimulation (an advanced neuromodulation treatment)), which can control seizures, reduce the number of seizures, and even cure some patients.
