In 2017, the ILAE released a new classification of seizure types, largely based upon the existing classification formulated in 1981. Primary differences include specific listing of certain new focal seizure types that may previously only have been in the generalized category, use of awareness as a surrogate for consciousness, emphasis on classifying focal seizures by the first clinical manifestation (except for altered awareness), a few new generalized seizure types, ability to classify some seizures when onset is unknown, and renaming of certain terms to improve clarity of meaning.. Assistant Professor University of Louisville Department of Neurosurgery. Frazier Rehabilitation Institute. Robley. Rex Veterans Administration. Neurorestorative. Asikainen said in 1998. Recovery from a TBI involves dealing with problems that can be physical, cognitive, or psychological in nature. The development of Posttraumatic Epilepsy(PTE) further complicates recovery by means of physical and psychological consequences of seizures as well as the medications used for their treatment. Whereas most posttraumatic symptoms show gradual improvement over time, epilepsy is unique in recurring suddenly and unexpectedly, leading to a physical and psychological setback that can negatively affect recovery and that has been shown to worsen functional outcome.
