Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy

Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) is an idiopathic widespread epileptic syndrome considered by myoclonic jerks, general tonic-clonic seizures (GTCSs), and occasionally absence seizures. JME is fairly common and responds well to act with appropriate anticonvulsants. Other structures suggestive of the diagnosis contain normal intelligence, onset around adolescence, and a family history of the form.

Impulsive petit mal seems around puberty and is considered by seizures with bilateral, single or repetitive, arrhythmic, irregular myoclonic jerks, predominantly in the arms. Jerks may cause some patients to fall suddenly. No disturbance of consciousness is noticeable. Often, there are GTCS and, less often infrequent absences. The seizures regularly occur shortly after awakening and are often precipitated by sleep deprivation."
