| Abstract: |
The article focuses on differentiating seizures from convulsive syncope, which share overlapping clinical features but require distinct treatments. Topics include key differences in onset, duration, post-event confusion, physical movements, and diagnostic approaches such as medical history, electroencephalogram, tilt table testing, and cardiac monitoring. |
