Abstract

Introduction: Febrile seizure is the most common of seizures in children often associated with tonic-clonic and a decrease in CONSCIOUSNESS LEVEL as well as an upward gaze . This disorder is considered the most common cause of epilepsy along with severe neurological damage. This study aimed to assess the electrolyte disorder assesses the underlying risk factor to control seizures. Materials & method: This was a cross– sectional study carried out on 172 children admitted for febrile seizure. In this study, the levels of potassium, glucose and calcium serum were measured.Findings: The results showed that, out of all the investigated cases, 35 children proved to suffer from hyponatremia, 2 from hypernatremia, and 135 cases showed a normal level of sodium. Furthermore, 8 children were suffering from hyperkalemia, 8 from hypokalemia, while 156 case were enjoying a normal level of potassium. Besides, 27 children proved as hypocalcemic, 11 as hyperkalcemic and 132 cases showed a normal level of calcium. Only one children was suffering from hypoglycemia.Conclusion: According to the statistical achievements of this study, there can't be any significant relation between the seizure occurrences and ELECTROLYTE DISORDERS in forms of hyper-or-hypomatremia, hyper-orhypokalemia, and hyper-orhypoglycemia ( P>0.05). Therefore, such patients are suggested to undergo these chemical tests Just in case of presenting underlying specific symptoms of such disorders.
