dc.description.abstractEpilepsy is a seizure disorder that is recurring and unpredictable due to neurons being synchronously active at the same time. Epilepsy can occur in any age group, but seventy percent of the pediatric population suffers from epilepsy. There are a wide variety of drugs to treat epilepsy in children and advances in the recent years have made a difference. Epilepsy is divided into two major categories, which include focal and generalized seizures. Focal seizures mainly influence one part of the brain, usually the medial temporal lobe. The patient could have intact consciousness or loss of consciousness further dividing the focal seizures into complex and simplex. Whereas generalized seizures affect both hemispheres of the brain. Generalized seizure is also further divided into the type of movement or activity seen in the patient. Generalized seizure subcategories include absence, tonic-clonic, atonic, myoclonic, and tonic. Since excess firing is the basis of epilepsy, the pharmacological treatment usually involves preventing neuronal transmission by inhibiting ion channels or receptors. The thesis will expand on management of epilepsy in the pediatric population.hu_HU
