My 2-year-old son has a fever and is shivering.
I will never forget walking into Adelaide’s hospital room, after taking a cab from the airport, and seeing a shadow of the daughter I had left when I left. I will never forget the month we spent in the hospital trying to get her chaotic brain waves under control.
seizure type, but they are not a diagnosis in and of themselves. EIs are a symptom of a larger problem and, as with all epilepsies, is the result of a genetic or acquired condition. Make every effort to obtain all available scans, genetic testing and second opinions, either through your neurologist or an outside research study.
Early diagnosis is keyIt is very important that infantile spasms are diagnosed early. If you suspect your baby may have infantile spasms, talk to your pediatrician right away. Your child may need to be seen by a pediatric neurologist. If you can, try to videotape an episode of your baby’s spasms and show it to your doctors.You may be told to go to the emergency room so a pediatric neurologist can examine your child. Your child may need to be hospitalized for a test called video electroencephalogram (EEG) monitoring. The video EEG is necessary to verify specific brain wave patterns during spasms and to document specific patterns between spasms. Pediatric neurologists look for a distinct EEG pattern called a
Epilepsy in children
West syndrome or infantile spasms syndrome is an epileptic encephalopathy of infancy, a disease that is severe but rare. It is characterized by three elements: epileptic spasms, psychomotor developmental delay and electroencephalogram hypsarrhythmia, although one of these may be absent.
Steroid therapy and the use of drugs are usually effective in the treatment of this disease when it is detected at an early age, but in general, it has a poor prognosis. The 90% of the cases present an important psychomotor delay, with motor limitations and autistic personality traits.
There are 3 main types of spasms: flexion (pitching or shrugging of the shoulders), extension (abrupt extension of the neck and trunk, with extension and abduction of all 4 limbs) and mixed.
In infants with West syndrome it is possible to detect psychomotor delay even before infantile spasms begin to occur. In this delay there are losses of acquired skills and neurological abnormalities.

In 70-80% of cases it is due to brain injury. The most common causes of these lesions are malformations (the most common being tuberous sclerosis, or sequelae of ischemia or meningoencephalitis), a genetic abnormality (such as Down syndrome, 1p36 deletion or mutations in the ARX or STK9 genes) or metabolic diseases (such as a mitochondrial disorder or phenylketonuria).[3] Ketogenic diets have been used for the treatment of ketoacidosis.
The ketogenic diet has been used successfully to treat a variety of seizure types, and studies have shown that it can be used with good results for the management of infantile spasms.[2] The ketogenic diet has been used to treat a variety of seizure types.[2
