Abstract:
Seizures are a common presentation seen in small animal practices. Seizures require prompt management including initial interventions for triage, stabilization, and treatment with first-line anticonvulsant (AC) drugs like benzodiazepines. Concurrently, ruling out metabolic or extracranial causes with point-of-care diagnostics can help guide further diagnostics and treatments. Analysis of the history and a physical exam are also necessary to rule out common \"look-alikes\" that require specific diagnostic workup and treatments. Typically, causes of seizures can be grouped into intracranial and extracranial causes, with the latter being easier to diagnose with commonly available tests. This review presents a systematic approach to the diagnosis and treatment of single seizures, cluster seizures, and status epilepticus in dogs and cats.
摘要:
癫痫发作是小动物实践中常见的表现。癫痫发作需要及时管理,包括分诊的初步干预措施,稳定,和一线抗惊厥(AC)药物如苯二氮卓类药物的治疗。同时,通过即时诊断排除代谢或颅外原因可以帮助指导进一步的诊断和治疗.分析病史和体检也是必要的,以排除需要特定诊断检查和治疗的常见“相似”。通常,癫痫发作的原因可以分为颅内和颅外原因,后者更容易用常用的测试来诊断。这篇综述提出了一种诊断和治疗单次癫痫发作的系统方法,集群癫痫发作,和癫痫持续状态的狗和猫。
