Question

A 6-and-a-half-year-old boy occasionally repeats the same action, blowing bubbles with his mouth, and there are also sounds coming from his throat. We have already scheduled an EEG video, and we want to know how long this examination will take.

Answer

The EEG video won’t take much time, about 30 minutes to 1 hour at most. Preventive measures should be taken specifically. Many experts emphasize that preventing epilepsy sequelae is as important as preventing the disease itself. Epilepsy sequelae affect not only the patient’s body but also the entire society, which requires understanding and support from all sectors of society for epilepsy patients, and efforts should be made to minimize social sequelae.
