Amniocentesis

Alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency can be diagnosed prenatally.

  • Chorionic villus sampling is usually performed between 11 to 14 weeks gestation
  • amniocentesis @15 to 20 weeks gestation
PCP:
•  co-trimoxazole

Most neurologists now start antiepileptics following a SECOND epileptic seizure.

Following a FIRST seizure, anti-epileptic drug treatment should only be started before specialist review in exceptional circumstances including: SDSU

  1. SEIZURE activity observed on EEG
  2. Presence of a neurological DEFICIT
  3. Presence of a STRUCTURAL brain abnormality
  4. Patient, parent or carer considers the risk of a further seizure to be UNACCEPTABLE
