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. Administering first aid, such as placing the person on their side to prevent aspiration and ensuring their airway remains clear, is vital.
