Revisión del 19:45 15 jul 2016 de Moomoodoctor (discusión | contribs.) (The ILAE is moving away from the the terms simple, partial and complex and focusing on "focal" or "generalized" with or without impairment in consciousness. They recognized the broad us of these other terms, however.)
Seizure Types
Classification is based on the international classification from 1981[1]

- Simple partial onset, followed by impairment of consciousness
- With impairment of consciousness at onset
- Focal seizures evolving to secondarily generalized seizures
- Simple partial seizures evolving to generalized seizures
- Complex partial seizures evolving to generalized seizures
- Simple partial seizures evolving to complex partial seizures evolving to generalized seizures
