D) Complex partial seizure

Feedback :

Seizures are classified as being generalized or partial. Generalized seizures are further classified

as being tonic-clonic (formerly called grand mal) or absence (formerly called petit mal) seizures.

Generalized tonic-clonic seizures result from abnormal electrical discharges from large areas of

the brain, usually involving both hemispheres. They are characterized by unconsciousness and

generalized severe twitching of the body's muscles; they last several minutes or longer. Absence

seizures are characterized by a brief lapse of consciousness in which the patient seems to stare

and does not respond to anyone. Absence seizures do not involve any changes in motor activity.

Partial (focal) seizures begin in one part of the brain and are classified as simple and complex. In

a simple partial seizure, no change occurs in the patient's level of consciousness. Patients may

report numbness, weakness, or dizziness. The senses may also be involved; the patient may

report visual changes and unusual smells or tastes. A simple partial seizure may also cause

twitching of the extremity muscles that spreads slowly from one part of the body to another. In a

complex partial seizure, the patient has an altered mental status and does not interact normally

with his or her environment. This type of seizure results from abnormal discharges from the

temporal lobe of the brain. Other signs may include lip smacking, eye blinking, and isolated

convulsions or jerking of the body or one part of the body, such as the arm. The patient may

experience unpleasant smells and visual hallucinations, exhibit uncontrollable fear, or exhibit

repetitive physical behavior such as constant sitting or standing. - ANSWER- C

A) Lack of pain at the site of the injury
