1ro Define that it is a Febril convulsionA convulsion is characterized by sudden muscle spasms or forfeiture of the conscience. Some convulsions are unchained by a feverish state and he/she knows them to him with the name of febril convulsions.
2do - How characteristic he/she has
The febril convulsions have three principal voltage-current characteristics: in general they are brief (they don't last more than 15 minutes), they only happen once during a period of 24 hours and they attack so much the right side as left of the body. The convulsions that don't complete these three approaches are not febril convulsions and they can be an epilepsy sign.
3ro - TO that age is more frequent?
Around each 100 children's 3 or 4 they have at least a febril convulsion between the 6 months and 5 years.
4to - does he/she Leave sequels?
Although in general a febril convulsion doesn't produce damage some to the boy, it can be extremely terrifying for the parents. The boy's body becomes hard, he/she has eyepiece (blank eyes) retroversión and it doesn't respond when they speak to him/her. In other cases, the boy can fall to the floor and to shake the arms and legs abruptly.
5to - When do they show up?
The convulsions, in general, show up during the initial phase of the illness (as colds, gastrointestinal infection, angina, etc.) while the temperature ascends quickly (Here it is where I want to clarify something, generally the boy that is spastic feverish, he/she usually shows up the spastic episode before we realize that he/she has fever. I say this, because the parents get scared a lot when a boy has fever thinking that they can convulsivar...). A boy that has a febril convulsion, in general, doesn't have epilepsy (convulse repetitious), although he has a probability lightly bigger than manifesting that affection that a boy that has not had it.
6to Origin
It is not known why some children have febril convulsions and other not. The children smaller than one year that you/they have had a febril convulsion have around fifty percent of probability of having another. In some cases, the physician recommends medicines to avoid other febril convulsions.
7mo - What to make?
If the boy has a convulsion, be about protecting it so that he doesn't injure. Put to bed him in the bed or in the floor and retract all hard object or filoso of the area. Place it of side or with the head toward a side so that he/she doesn't drown in the case of vomits. Not place anything in the boy's (mainly, don't try to insert him/her the fingers in the mouth, it is a MYTH to believe that it can drown with the tongue) mouth.
If the hard convulsion more than two or three minutes, or if the boy has difficulty to breathe, request to somebody that requests medical urgent help while you stay with the boy. Otherwise, once it has ended the convulsion, call to the physician or take to the boy to the emergency room. The physician can recommend some studios to discard infections or other lawsuits.
It is important that it is about avoiding another convulsion controlling that the boy's temperature doesn't ascend when it is diseased (This is in another episode, remember that the typical febril convulsions don't repeat inside the feverish same box). The physician can recommend the paracetamol (Termofrén) management or ibuprofeno (Ibupirac, Febratic, Actron, etc) for babies and children and bathrooms with tepid water.
Not shelter too much to the boy when it is diseased or he/she has fever. The temperature can still ascend more if it is dressed with different layers of clothes (Another MYTH is to believe that the more he/she perspires, quicker it downloads the fever).
