halothane and Epilepsy

halothane has been researched along with Epilepsy in 19 studies

Epilepsy: A disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of paroxysmal brain dysfunction due to a sudden, disorderly, and excessive neuronal discharge. Epilepsy classification systems are generally based upon: (1) clinical features of the seizure episodes (e.g., motor seizure), (2) etiology (e.g., post-traumatic), (3) anatomic site of seizure origin (e.g., frontal lobe seizure), (4) tendency to spread to other structures in the brain, and (5) temporal patterns (e.g., nocturnal epilepsy). (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p313)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The early effects of 5 or 10 min global cerebral ischemia, sham operation and halothane anesthesia were evaluated in Mongolian gerbils by means of electroencephalography (EEG), neurological examination and passive avoidance training."3.69Response variability to ischemic injury in the Mongolian gerbil: an electroencephalographic and behavioral study. ( Adami, M; Ambrosini, MV; Bruschelli, G; de Rino, F; Gambelunghe, C; Mariucci, G, 1996)
"Clinical and EEG changes were studied in 12 children affected by infantile cerebral palsy and generalized or focal epilepsy, during and after halothane anaesthesia induced by orthopaedic surgery."3.66EEG and clinical features in epileptic children during halothane anaesthesia. ( Calvisi, V; D'Andrea, E; De Feo, MR; Mecarelli, O; Romanini, L, 1981)
"Of a total of 45 patients suffering from epilepsy, 29 received enflurane and 11 halothane anaesthesia, while 5 were given both agents successively during the same operative procedure."3.66Enflurane or halothane anaesthesia for patients with cerebral convulsive disorders?
