Febrile seizures are seizures or convulsions that occur in young children and are triggered by fever. The fever may accompany common childhood illnesses such as a cold, the flu, or an ear infection. In some cases, a child may not have a fever at the time of the seizure but will develop one a few hours later.
The febrile group was defined as patients having a body temperature greater than 38.0 °C 24 h before or after the seizures. The afebrile group was defined as those having a body temperature less than 38.0 °C 24 h before and after the seizures.
Febrile seizures are convulsions that can happen when a young child has a fever above 100.4°F (38°C). (Febrile means "feverish.") The seizures usually last for a few minutes and stop on their own. The fever may continue for some time.
Febrile seizures are classified as being simple or complex. Simple — Simple febrile seizures are the most common. Typically, the child loses consciousness and has a convulsion or rhythmic twitching of the arms or legs. Most seizures do not last more than one to two minutes, although they can last up to 15 minutes.
Atypical Febrile Seizures If a child has one of the following, they have an atypical febrile seizure and may be showing early signs of epilepsy. Prolonged seizure activity longer than 15 minutes. Only one side of the body is involved in the seizure. More than one seizure during the same febrile illness.
Complex febrile seizures are less common, accounting for two out of 10 cases. A complex febrile seizure is any seizure that has one or more of the following features: the seizure lasts longer than 15 minutes. your child only has symptoms in one part of their body (this is known as a partial or focal seizure)
A febrile seizure is a generalized tonic-clonic (grand mal) seizure that occurs in some children as a response to a fever. Febrile seizures are usually associated with rapidly rising fevers, and usually occur early in the fever rather than later. The central nervous system comprises the brain and spinal cord.
Symptoms of febrile convulsionsloss of consciousness (black out)twitching or jerking of arms and legs.breathing difficulty.foaming at the mouth.going pale or bluish in skin colour.eye rolling, so only the whites of their eyes are visible.your child may take 10 to 15 minutes to wake up properly afterwards.
To diagnose the cause of a complex febrile seizure, your doctor may also recommend an electroencephalogram (EEG), a test that measures brain activity. Your doctor may also recommend an MRI to check your child's brain if your child has: An unusually large head. An abnormal neurological evaluation.
Febrile seizures can be caused by: A temperature of 100.4˚ F or higher.
Febrile seizures are usually benign and treated conservatively. This is in contrast to bacterial meningitis, which carries a fatality rate of 14.4%. Meningitis presents with seizures in 23% of cases. Differentiation between febrile seizures and meningitis is therefore of utmost importance to avoid poor outcomes.

It is important to start treatment right away. There is no cure for epilepsy, but medicines can control seizures for most people. When medicines are not working well, surgery or implanted devices such as vagus nerve stimulators may help. Special diets can help some children with epilepsy.
