Session and Tracks
Track 1 : Pediatric Epilepsy
A condition characterized by recurrent seizures in children, presents unique challenges and opportunities in the field of neurology. Unlike epilepsy in adults, pediatric epilepsy often involves a wide range of etiologies and can manifest in various forms, from benign childhood epilepsies that may resolve as the child grows, to more severe and persistent forms that can significantly impact development and quality of life. The management of pediatric epilepsy requires a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach that addresses both medical and psychosocial aspects of care. Early and accurate diagnosis is crucial, as it guides the choice of treatment strategies, which may include antiepileptic drugs (AEDs), dietary therapies such as the ketogenic diet, or surgical interventions for drug-resistant cases. Advances in neuroimaging and genetic testing have improved diagnostic precision, enabling tailored treatments that target the specific underlying causes of seizures. Pediatric epilepsy care also emphasizes the importance of minimizing medication side effects, which can affect cognitive and emotional development. As children grow, transitioning from pediatric to adult care involves careful planning to ensure continuity of treatment and support. Additionally, pediatric epilepsy management often includes addressing the educational and social needs of children, as seizures and their treatments can impact school performance and peer relationships.
Track 2 : Epilepsy and Aging
Epilepsy and aging intersect in complex ways, presenting unique challenges and considerations for older adults who either develop epilepsy later in life or have a history of the condition that persists into old age. For many elderly patients, epilepsy can be a new diagnosis, often linked to age-related factors such as cerebrovascular disease, neurodegenerative disorders or brain tumors, which can complicate diagnosis and management. Seizures in older adults may present differently compared to younger populations, with atypical seizure manifestations and increased difficulty in distinguishing them from other age-related conditions like transient ischemic attacks or syncope. The treatment of epilepsy in the elderly necessitates a nuanced approach, as the pharmacokinetics of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) can be altered by age-related physiological changes, such as decreased renal and hepatic function. This can affect drug metabolism and increase the risk of adverse effects, making careful selection and monitoring of medications essential to balance efficacy with safety. Additionally, polypharmacy, common in older adults due to concurrent medical conditions, can lead to drug interactions and complicate epilepsy management. Cognitive decline and memory issues associated with aging can further complicate the impact of epilepsy, as frequent seizures or side effects from AEDs may exacerbate cognitive impairment. Non-pharmacological treatments, including lifestyle modifications and psychosocial support, play a crucial role in managing epilepsy in older adults, addressing factors such as fall risk, quality of life, and social support.
Track 3: Emergency Management of Seizures
Emergency management of seizures involves a critical and timely response to ensure the safety and well-being of the patient, especially during a prolonged or severe seizure episode. When a seizure occurs, the primary goal is to prevent injury and provide appropriate care, starting with ensuring that the individual is in a safe environment. For generalized tonic-clonic seizures, which often last between one to three minutes, it is crucial to protect the patient from potential harm by moving any dangerous objects away and cushioning their head if possible. During the seizure, one should avoid restraining the patient or placing objects, such as a tongue depressor, in their mouth, as these actions can lead to injury or worsen the situation. It is also important to monitor the duration of the seizure, as seizures lasting more than five minutes, or recurrent seizures without full recovery in between (known as status epilepticus), require immediate medical intervention. If a seizure persists beyond five minutes, or if the patient is having multiple seizures in a row, emergency medical services should be contacted immediately, mimic seizures is important for ensuring appropriate treatment. If the person has any specific medical conditions, such as this may indicate a serious condition that requires advanced medical care
Track 4: Epilepsy Management of Seizures
Effective management of seizures in epilepsy requires a multifaceted approach that integrates medical treatment, lifestyle modifications, and ongoing monitoring to optimize control and minimize impact on daily life. The cornerstone of seizure management is the use of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) which are selected based on the type of seizures, the patient's overall health, and potential side effects. The goal is to achieve seizure freedom or significant reduction in frequency with the least possible side effects. Regular follow-up with a neuronal is essential to adjust medication dosages, monitor for adverse effects, and evaluate the effectiveness of the treatment plan. For patients with drug-resistant epilepsy additional treatment options may be considered, including surgical interventions to remove or alter the brain tissue responsible for seizure generation, or neuromodulation therapies such as vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) or responsive neurostimulation (RNS). In addition to pharmacological and surgical options, lifestyle and behavioral strategies play a critical role in managing seizures. This includes identifying and avoiding seizure triggers, such as lack of sleep, stress, or specific dietary factors, and implementing consistent routines to support overall health. Educational efforts for patients and their families are crucial, providing them with knowledge on how to recognize, respond to, and manage seizures effect.
Track 5: Epilepsy and lifestyle Modification
Lifestyle modification is a crucial component of epilepsy management, as it can significantly influence seizure control, overall health, and quality of life. For individuals with epilepsy, certain lifestyle adjustments can help minimize seizure frequency and improve the effectiveness of treatment. One of the most important modifications is maintaining a consistent and adequate sleep schedule, as sleep deprivation is a well-known seizure trigger. Establishing a regular routine with sufficient rest can help stabilize brain activity and reduce the likelihood of seizures. Stress management is another key factor, as emotional and psychological stress can provoke seizures or exacerbate existing conditions. Techniques such as mindfulness, relaxation exercises, and cognitive-behavioral therapy can be effective in managing stress and improving emotional well-being. Diet also plays a significant role; for some patients, dietary changes such as adopting a ketogenic or modified Atkins diet may help in achieving better seizure control, particularly in cases that do not respond well to medication. Regular physical activity is beneficial not only for overall health but also for reducing seizure frequency and improving mood. However, it is essential to engage in exercise with caution, as certain types of physical activity or exertion could potentially trigger seizures in some individuals persons.
Track 6: Cognitive and lifestyle Modification
Cognitive and lifestyle modifications are vital strategies for enhancing overall well-being and managing various health conditions, including epilepsy, mental health disorders, and chronic illnesses. Cognitive modifications, which involve altering thought patterns and behaviors, play a significant role in improving mental health and daily functioning. Techniques such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) help individuals identify and challenge negative though |
