SAFE KIDS HOSPITALS
Pediatric & Neonatal Care Excellence
Advanced pediatric digital EEG diagnostics, epilepsy management, seizure emergency protocols, and developmental milestone therapies.
The Child Neurology and Neurodevelopmental department at Safe Kids Hospitals provides comprehensive medical care for children with disorders of the brain, spinal cord, nerves, and muscles. From diagnosing complex epilepsy and administering midnight seizure emergency protocols to evaluating autism spectrum disorders and global developmental delays, our team combines digital video EEG monitoring, neuro-imaging, and early multi-disciplinary intervention.
Step-by-Step Home Actions During an Active Convulsion
Keep calm and check your watch immediately. Most seizures end naturally within 2 minutes.
Gently turn the child onto their side (recovery position) to keep the airway clear and prevent saliva aspiration.
Move sharp objects, hard furniture, or edges away from the child. Cushion their head with a soft folded towel.
Do NOT force anything into the child's mouth, spoon, water, or fingers. A child cannot swallow their tongue.
If the seizure lasts longer than 5 minutes or repeats, administer emergency nasal midazolam spray if prescribed and rush to Safe Kids Emergency.
Recurrent unprovoked seizures caused by abnormal synchronized electrical discharges in the brain, including focal, generalized, and absence seizures.
Convulsions triggered by sudden high body temperature in children aged 6 months to 5 years, and prolonged continuous seizures lasting >5 minutes.
Non-progressive disorders of movement, muscle tone, or posture caused by damage to the developing brain before, during, or shortly after birth.
Neurodevelopmental variations affecting social communication, reciprocal interaction, attention regulation, and sensory processing.
Severe recurrent head pain often accompanied by nausea, abdominal pain, light sensitivity (photophobia), and visual auras in children.
Non-invasive recording of brain electrical patterns synchronized with high-definition video to accurately classify seizure types.
Protocolized emergency cessation of prolonged seizures in our PICU with IV Midazolam, Levetiracetam, and continuous monitoring.
Standardized developmental assessments (Denver II, M-CHAT) tracking gross motor, fine motor, language, and social milestones.
Precision weight-based dosing and serum level monitoring of antiepileptic medications to prevent recurrence with minimal side effects.
No. Febrile seizures occur because a young child's immature brain is sensitive to rapid rises in fever. Fewer than 3% to 5% of children with simple febrile seizures ever go on to develop epilepsy. Most outgrow febrile seizures completely by age 5.
An absence seizure is a brief staring spell lasting 5 to 15 seconds during which the child suddenly stops talking, blinking, or moving. They are completely unaware during the episode and resume normal activity instantly without remembering the pause.
Not at all. An EEG is completely painless and safe. Small sensors (electrodes) are attached to the scalp with a water-soluble paste to record natural brain waves. No electricity or radiation is delivered to the child.
In most pediatric epilepsy cases, medications are continued for approximately 2 seizure-free years. Once the child remains seizure-free and follow-up EEGs normalize, the pediatric neurologist will gradually taper the medication.
Emergency PICU beds available 24/7 for acute status epilepticus and infantile spasms.
