Seizures are brain malfunctions that alter a personâs awareness. During a seizure, the brain cells fire large bursts of energy, a departure from the normal on-and-off firing pattern. The seizure may last only a few seconds or minutes and trigger involuntary body movements, strange sensations or blackouts.
These episodes of âconvulsive syncopeâ may at times be difficult to distinguish from seizures resulting from epilepsy. Indeed, some studies have reported that anywhere between 30 -42% of patients initially thought to have epileptic seizures were later found to have convulsive syncope due to cardiovascular cause (3, 4).
