Febrile Seizures
New Concepts and Consequences

368 Seiten, 2. Auflage, 2022

Febrile Seizures: New Concepts and Consequences, Second Edition presents the latest developments and current state of knowledge in the field. Topics include new imaging tools and emerging data, the visualizing effects of febrile seizures on the brain, new genetic methodologies, and the use of animal models to permit scientific analysis of the electrophysiology and molecular biology of the seizure.

This updated second edition covers many advances, such as the role of inflammation and the prediction of epilepsy across species. The editors also discuss the memory problems following long febrile seizures and critical new information derived from children and animal models.

This book provides readers with a broad understanding of the spectrum of febrile seizure outcomes and the relevant mechanisms and biomarkers involved.

Features:
  • Reviews all aspects of febrile seizures, including epidemiology, neurobiology and treatment
  • Discusses novel and newly discovered information based on up-to the minute methods
  • Provides an engaging style that is accessible to clinicians, researchers and educated parents
