Epilepsy is now known to many people, this disease is often mentioned in clinical epilepsy, which belongs to a disease of neurology, and its incidence is second only to headache, so it can be said that the incidence is very high. And this disease is also very serious, especially when the symptoms of the disease occur, it is often an unconscious sudden attack, and in most cases, the attack symptoms are mainly comprehensive attacks.
It is precisely because of such severe symptoms of the disease that many people will feel fear of seizure epilepsy patients, and some people are afraid that epilepsy patients will die because of such severe disease symptoms.
Normally, epilepsy symptoms occur within five minutes and usually recover within two to three minutes, but some patients with severe seizures will prolong the seizure, and some patients will develop status epilepticus. It is possible whether a seizure will cause a patient to die, but this is not a very high probability or a strict one, and every patient will die because of the symptoms of the seizure.
The reason why patients die from seizures is that the seizures are too long, and in the seizure state, the patient's brain will be ischemia and hypoxia, and the symptoms of the seizure will not be relieved for a long time, which may lead to the death of the patient. The second is that the patient's symptoms are not effectively controlled, and the epileptic seizures occur when traveling, such as on the road or while traveling, which will lead to the sudden loss of consciousness of the patient, followed by the occurrence of epileptic symptoms and accidents, resulting in the death of the patient.
Therefore, there is a certain chance that epileptic seizures will kill people, but in today's rapid development of medicine, as long as the patient undergoes a detailed disease examination at the beginning of the disease symptoms and treats the condition clearly, the disease can be well controlled, and there will be no persistent seizures and accidents, and the patient will not die. Therefore, once a patient suffers from epilepsy, it must be treated in time, and it is recommended to choose a specialized epilepsy hospital to better treat the disease.
