A few days ago, the Capital Medical University Sanbo Brain Hospital received a 10-year-old patient, Xiaotongtong, who lives in Zhengzhou, Henan Province, in the first half of the year due to a high fever caused by the flu, fist clenching, twitching and other abnormal behavior, frightened the mother who took care of Xiaotongtong. The hospital was infused with fluids to slowly reduce the fever, and after waking up the little boy did not remember his abnormal behavior. According to the mother’s recollection, the child has often had a fever since he was a child, and occasionally had abnormal behavior such as shouting and convulsions when he had a high fever in the past, which has occurred about six or seven times since birth. She was worried that her child was suffering from epilepsy, so she visited our hospital. After several hours of EEG examination, the expert told Tong Tong’s mother that Tong’s abnormal behavior belonged to febrile convulsions, not epileptic seizures, but clinically there is a possibility of febrile convulsions turning into epilepsy, so she instructed Hao Hao’s mother to make sure to bring him for EEG review regularly. According to the epilepsy experts at Sanbo Brain Hospital, febrile convulsions are not equal to epilepsy. The symptoms of febrile convulsions are similar to those of seizures, but they are not epilepsy, and the prognosis is generally good. It is worth noting that although febrile convulsions are not equal to epilepsy, they are closely related to epilepsy, and there is a clinical possibility of febrile convulsions turning into epilepsy. For children with a history of febrile convulsions, parents must know the following knowledge about the disease in order to prevent a minor illness from becoming a major one. 1, only one convulsion during a fever is simple febrile convulsions, more than two is complex febrile convulsions; convulsions occur within 24 hours of the beginning of the fever (usually 6-8 hours), the convulsion time is about 5 minutes, not more than 10 minutes for simple febrile convulsions; good mental state after the convulsion, usually simple convulsions. If depressed, it may be encephalitis. If drowsy, it is often easy to develop into epilepsy. 2, baby fever, oral temperature of 38.5 ℃, anal surface temperature of 39 ℃ or more, the occurrence of simple hyperthermia convulsions more. The oral temperature of 38.5℃ and the anal surface temperature of 39℃ or less are complex febrile convulsions. No febrile convulsions that is epilepsy.3, 2 months – 6 years old within the baby high fever easily triggered convulsions, 1-2 years old is the good age, this age first occurrence of febrile convulsions, often simple predominant. In contrast, those who begin to have their first episode after the age of 3 years are more complex and have a greater likelihood of transforming into epilepsy. Convulsions in newborns with high fever are not called febrile convulsions. After 6 years of age, if the baby has simple convulsions that will disappear naturally and still has convulsions, then it is definitely a complex convulsion.
