• \An epileptic seizure with impaired awareness occurring at any point within the seizure, defined as impairment of knowledge of self and environment, regardless of whether focal, generalized or unknown onset, and whether motor or nonmotor.\An epileptic seizure, regardless of focal or generalised onset, in which motor activity is not prominent at onset, and with impaired awareness occurring at any point within the seizure, defined as impairment of knowledge of self and environment.\Absence seizures present with a cessation of activity and impaired awareness associated with generalised spike and wave on EEG (electroencephalogram). An absence seizure is a generalised onset seizure and therefore, it originates at some point within, and rapidly engages, bilaterally distributed networks.\A sudden onset, interruption of ongoing activities, a blank stare, possibly a brief upward deviation of the eyes. Usually, the patient will be unresponsive when spoken to. Duration is a few seconds to half a minute with very rapid recovery. An EEG (electroencephalogram) shows generalised spike-wave discharges during the event. A seizure originating at some point within, and rapidly engaging, bilaterally distributed networks.
