Abstract

Convulsive syndrome is an urgent, potentially life-threatening condition in neurological, paediatric and general practice. Over the past decade, reconsideration has been committed in relation to the defi nition of epilepsy, epileptic syndromes, including convulsive syndrome with simultaneous expansion of the arsenal of medicinal products for cessation of convulsive seizures in children and adults. In this connection, we have prepared this lecture comprising two parts: the first part considers the defi nition, pathogenesis, aetiology and diagnosis of the convulsive syndrome. The lecture is designed for neurologists, paediatricians, general practitioners, ambulance physicians and anaesthesiologists-reanimatologists. Th e system of continuing medical education (CME) considers convulsive syndrome within the framework of the programme for postgraduate training of physicians in these specialities.
