Seizures Caused by Water-Electrolyte Imbalance and Epilepsy: Diagnosis and Therapy Problems

Water-electrolyte homeostasis disorders (WEHD) are considered in two aspects: as a possible factor for inducing acute symptomatic seizures in WEHD patients and as a factor of disorder destabilizing in epilepsy patients. Etiological systematization of WEHD is presented. The fea- tures of brain injury...

Description
Summary:Water-electrolyte homeostasis disorders (WEHD) are considered in two aspects: as a possible factor for inducing acute symptomatic seizures in WEHD patients and as a factor of disorder destabilizing in epilepsy patients. Etiological systematization of WEHD is presented. The fea- tures of brain injury, neurological disorders, and long-term prognosis in patients with acute hyponatremia are discussed. The diagnosis and therapy problems in patients with water-electrolyte homeostasis disorders are analyzed; a clinical case is reported.
