Seizure semiology

Seizure semiology refers to the study of the observable signs and symptoms of seizures to understand what happens during these episodes. Each seizure type has specific characteristics, such as shaking, staring, unusual sensations, or movements, which can help diagnose the type of seizure and underlying conditions. Doctors analyze these features, including duration and triggers, to determine the most effective treatment. By understanding seizure semiology, healthcare professionals gain insight into how seizures affect the brain and the individual experiencing them, guiding better management and support strategies.
