We specialize in providing expert care for children with epilepsy. Our team of experienced pediatric neurologists is dedicated to diagnosing and treating epilepsy with a compassionate, family-centered approach.

Understanding Epilepsy in Children

Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures. These seizures occur due to abnormal electrical activity in the brain and can vary in type and severity. Recognizing the signs early and seeking appropriate treatment is crucial for managing the condition effectively.

Common Signs of Epilepsy

  • Recurrent Seizures: Sudden, involuntary movements or loss of consciousness.
  • Staring Spells: Brief periods of unresponsiveness or blank stares.
  • Jerking Movements: Involuntary twitching or jerking of limbs.
  • Unusual Sensations: Experiencing strange feelings or sensations, such as tingling or dizziness.

If your child exhibits any of these symptoms, it’s important to consult a pediatric neurologist for a thorough evaluation.

Comprehensive Diagnosis at Vidya Vikas Child Neuroclinic

Diagnosing epilepsy involves a detailed assessment to determine the type and cause of seizures. At Vidya Vikas Child Neuroclinic, our diagnostic process includes:

  • Medical History Review: Understanding the child’s health background and seizure history.
  • Neurological Examination: Assessing the nervous system to identify any abnormalities.
  • Electroencephalogram (EEG): Recording electrical activity in the brain to detect irregularities.
  • Imaging Studies: Utilizing MRI or CT scans to examine the brain’s structure.

Based on the findings, we develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your child’s needs.

Effective Treatment Options

At Vidya Vikas Child Neuroclinic, we offer a range of treatment options to manage epilepsy effectively:

  • Medication: Antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) are commonly prescribed to control seizures. Our specialists carefully select the appropriate medication and dosage for your child.
  • Dietary Therapy: In some cases, specialized diets like the ketogenic diet may be recommended to help control seizures.
  • Surgical Intervention: For children with seizures that don’t respond to medication, surgical options may be considered.
  • Neurostimulation: Devices that stimulate the brain to reduce seizure frequency may be an option for certain cases.

Our team works closely with families to monitor progress and adjust treatment plans as needed.
