La clasificación del tipo de crisis las divide según tres posibilidades de inicio: las de inicio focal, generalizado y desconocido. Las crisis focales se pueden subclasificar en aquellas que tiene pérdida o no de la consciencia, para posteriormente categorizar si los síntomas son motores o no motores y dar un descriptor del evento, que no es otra cosa sino la descripción de síntomas y signos que presenta el paciente en su crisis. La clasificación del tipo de epilepsia propone tres niveles diagnósticos: el primero relacionado con el tipo de crisis, el segundo con el tipo de epilepsia y el tercero con el tipo de síndrome epiléptico, sin olvidar la etiología y la comorbilidad. Estos conceptos son básicos en el abordaje de cualquier paciente que presenta epilepsia.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract The current definition of epilepsy proposes three possibilities in which to consider this diagnosis, the first when a patient has two or more unprovoked or reflex seizures separated in 24 h, the second, an unprovoked or reflected seizure with a probability of continuing to present seizures of at least 60%, and the third, the presence of an epileptic syndrome. The classification of the type of seizure divides them into three possibilities depending on how they begin: those of focal, generalized and unknown initiation. Focal seizures can be subclassified in those that have loss or not consciousness, and then categorized depending on whether the symptoms are motor or non-motor, and give a descriptor of the event, which is nothing else but the description of symptoms and signs that presents the patient in the seizure. The classification of the type of epilepsy proposes three diagnostic levels: the first related to the type of seizure, the second to the type of epilepsy and the third to the type of epileptic syndrome, without forgetting the etiology and comorbidity. These concepts are basic in the approach of any patient who presents epilepsy.]]></p></abstract>
