Zusammenfassung
Epileptische Anfälle können grob in generalisierte und partielle Anfälle unterschieden werden. Primär generalisierte Anfälle beruhen auf einer starken Synchronisierung der neuronalen Aktivität, ohne daß die durchschnittliche Entladungstätigkeit der Zellen ansteigen muß (Kostopoulos et al. 1982). Diese starke Synchronisation macht eine normale Verarbeitung von Informationen unmöglich. Deshalb kommt es zu Bewußtseinstörungen. Aus der Aktivität kann sich u.U. ein großer Anfall entwickeln.
