How can i tell if my baby just had an epileptic attack?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Careful observation: The most important information is your very careful and thorough description of the event. Most accurate would be the recording of an eeg during the event, but this is rarely possible. Close monitoring of neurological development is very important. Medication is rarely necessary.
