50866000: Childhood absence epilepsy (disorder)

• SNOMED CT Concept\Clinical finding (finding)\...
• \Head finding (finding)\Finding of brain\Seizure\Seizure disorder\A disease of the brain characterized by an enduring predisposition to generate epileptic seizures.\A type of epilepsy with only generalised onset epileptic seizures.\Epilepsy with only generalised onset epileptic seizures and generalised spike-wave, due to a genetic or presumed genetic aetiology.\A distinct sub-group of genetic generalised epilepsy that includes only four epilepsy syndromes: childhood absence epilepsy, juvenile absence epilepsy, juvenile myoclonic epilepsy, and epilepsy with generalised tonic-clonic seizures alone.\A type of epilepsy that presents with daily typical absence seizures usually between 4 to 10 years of age in an otherwise normal child. Absence seizures are brief but may occur in clusters and are provoked by hyperventilation. Development and cognition are typically normal. Neurological examination is normal. The electroencephalogram shows 2.5 to 4 Hz generalized spike-wave and a normal background.
