Article Synopsis
- Seizures can cause serious complications like cardiac problems and Takotsubo syndrome, which is a heart condition triggered by stress that resembles a heart attack.
- A case study of a 66-year-old woman with epilepsy showed that a prolonged seizure led to heart issues, including elevated troponin levels and heart function problems, with normal coronary arteries.
- After receiving adjusted anti-seizure treatments and cardiac care in the ICU, the patient improved significantly, underlining the need for coordinated care between neurology and cardiology to address these complications.
