Seizure Disorders.
???) Concerning neonatal convulsions, all the following are true except:
The usual tonic-clonic are not common, but tonic convulsions are the commonest in pre-matures
Subtle type is the commonest form and hypoxic ischemia encephalopathy is the most common cause
Differential diagnosis includes Jitteriness
Phenobarbitone is considered to be the drug of choice for neonatal seizure
Etiology: hypoglycemia, hypocalcemia, and hypermagnesemia
Answer: 5* Etiology: hypoglycemia, hypocalcemia, and hypermagnesemia
???) Commonest type of neonatal seizures is:
Generalized tonic clonic
Subtle type
Tonic type
Clonic type
Myoclonic type
Answer: 2* Subtle type
???) Possible causes of convulsions in neonate include all of the following, except:
Hypocalcemia
Hypoglycemia
Febril convulsions
Pyridoxine deficiency
Intracranial hemorrhage
Answer: 3* Febril convulsions
???) Convulsions in a premature newborn could be caused by all of the following, except:
Brain anoxia
Hypokalemia
Hypoglycemia
Hypocalcemia
Kernicterus
Answer: 2* Hypokalemia
???) Neonatal convulsions can be caused by all except:
Hypoglycemia
Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy
Pyridoxin deficiency (Vit B6)
High fever
Hypocalcemia
Answer: C* Pyridoxin deficiency (High levels of Vit B6 may lead to convulsions)
???) The differential diagnosis of "staring" in a child includes all of the following, except:
Absence seizure
Partial complex seizure
Day dreaming
Clonic seizure
Drug intoxication
Answer: 4* Clonic seizure
Febrile Seizures.
???) Criteria for diagnosis of febrile convulsions include all the following except :
Age 6 months to 5 years
Presence of fever
Absence of CNS infection
Abnormal electroencephalography EEG
Positive family history of febrile convulsions
Answer: 4* Abnormal electroencephalography EEG
???) Concerning febrile seizures one of the following is true:
Do no harm to most healthy children
Are associated with low grade meningitis
Never occur after 3 years
Produce permanent EEG changes
Require therapy with rnysoline
Answer: 1* Do no harm to most healthy children
???) All of the following are risk factors for increase recurrence of febrile convulsions, except:
Older age of onset (more than 4 years)
Prior neurological abnormality
Family history of febrile convulsions
Family history of non-febrile convulsions
Complex febrile seizures
Answer: 4* Family history of non-febrile convulsions
???) All of the following statements are correct about simple febrile convulsions (SFC), except:
Age range is 6 months - 6 years
Incidence of subsequent epilepsy is double the general populations
Risk of recurrence for a 4 year old child presenting with first attack of SFC is 10%
The younger the age of onset of SFC the higher is the recurrence rate
IQ in late onset of SFC is usually decreased by 15 points below the mean of the general population
Answer: 5* IQ in late onset of SFC is usually decreased by 15 points below the mean of the general population
