Definition
Febrile seizured or febrile convulsion are accuring at an increase in body temperature
(rectal temperature above 38C) caused by process ekstracraium.
Febrile convulsion are the release of a group of neurons suddenly resulting in a
breakdown of consciousness, movement, sensation or memory, which is temporary.
A febrile convulsion is an attack in children occurs from a collection of symptoms
with fever.
Febrile Convulsion are seizures occurred in the increase in body temperature (a rectal
temperature above 38C ) that is caused by a process ekstrakranium. Febrile seizures are
often also called febrile seizures, tonic- clonic, very common in children under 5 years of
age. These seizures caused by a sudden onset hypertermia arising in a bacterial or viral
infection.
From the above understanding can be concluded febrile convulsion are seizures that
occur due to an increase in body temperature that is often found in children under 5 years
of age.
1.2.
Etiology
Causes of Febrile convulsion until now not known with certainty, fever is often caused
by upper respiratory tract infections, otitis media, pneumonia, gastroenteritis and urinary
tract infections. Convulsion in baby and children caused by a rise in body temperature is
high and fast. Convulsion are not always arise at elevated temperatures. Sometimes fever
is not so high can cause seizures (Mansjoer, 2000).
Convulsions can occur in any person who suffered hypoxia (decreased oxygen in the
blood) in weight, hypoglycemia, asodemia, alkalemia, dehydration, water intoxication, or
high fever. Convulsion are caused by metabolic disorders are reversible when the
stimulus is removed originators (Corwin, 2001).
1.3.
Patofisiology
In the state of fever, a temperature rise of 1 degree Celsius would cause a 10-15%
increase basal metabolism and oxygen demand increased by 20%. On a 3-year-old boy
brain circulation reached 65% of the entire body, whereas in adults is only 15%. So at a
certain rise in body temperature can change the balance of the membrane and in a short
time diffusion of potassium and sodium ions through the membrane before, with the
result of loose electrical charge. Remove the electric charge is so great that can be
extended to the whole cell or the cell membrane to the other with the help of a material
called neurotransmitters, causing seizures.
1.4.
Classification
Febrile seizures occur in 2-4% of children with ages ranging from 6 months to 5
years, the highest incidence at the age of 18 months.
Febrile seizures are divided into:
1. Febrile seizures (simple febrile seizure)
a. Held a short (<15 minutes) and generally will stop on its own.
b. Seizures general shape (seizures and tonic or clonic seizures), without a focal
movement.
c. Seizures only once / not repeated within 24 hours.
d. Simple febrile seizures was 80% among all febrile seizures.
2. complex febrile seizures (Complex febrile seizure)
a. Lasts a long time (> 15 minutes).
b. Focal or partial seizures one side, or a generalized seizure which preceded partial
seizures.
c. Seizures Recurrent or more than 1 time in 24 hours.
Long seizures are seizures that lasts longer than 15 minutes or recurrent seizures more
than 2 times and between seizures the child is unconscious. Long Seizures occurred in 8%
of febrile seizures.
Focal seizures are one-sided partial seizures, generalized seizures that preceded partial
seizures.
Recurrent seizures are seizures 2 times or more in one day, between two seizures
conscious child. Recurrent seizures occurred in 16% among children who experience
febrile seizures.
1.5.
Clinical Symptoms
The occurrence of convulsion in baby and children most in conjunction with the
increase in body temperature is high and fast due to infections outside the central nervous
system, such as tonsillitis, acute otitis media and others. Factors causing febrile
2
convulsion among others, is the degree of fever, age and genetic factors.febrile
convulsion are often experienced by baby and children aged 6 months to 5 years and the
most frequenthly encountered at the age of 9 to 20 months.
Febrile convulsion are divided into two, namely, simple febrile convulsion and
complex febrile convulsion. Understanding simple febrile convulsion are seizures that
the moment is less than 15 minutes and not recurring. Simple febrile convulsion are
seizures that are often found form and have a low risk of complications. Whereas
complex febrile convulsion are usually the more than 15 minutes and at higher risk for
repetition of the attack and can develop into epilepsy. In general, a febrile convulsion is a
disease that is not dangerous and has a low risk of complications. Only if left without
proper treatment then there will be some complications that will occur, include: recurring
seizures, epilepsy, decreased IQ and neurological disorders.
1.6.
Complication
1. Epilepsy
Occurs due to damage to the temporal lobe area that lasts longer and can be mature.
2. Retardation mental
Febrile convulsion occurred in patients who had previously been found
developmental disorders or neurological disorders.
3. Hemipharesis
Hemipharesis is paralysis of half the body caused by ischemic stroke that causes
sudden neurological deficit in the brain. The damage to the central sistemsaraf cause
motor disturbances in bawah.Biasanya members occur in patients who experience a
seizure of time (lasting more than 30 minutes).
4. Failure Respiratory
As a result of seizure activity that causes respiratory muscles into spasm.
5. Death
1.7.
Supporting Investigation
A. Laboratory examination
Laboratory tests are not done routinely in febrile seizures, but can be done to
evaluate the source of the infection causes fever, or other circumstances, such as
gastroenteritis dehydration fever.
Laboratory tests that can be done for example: peripheral blood, electrolytes
and blood sugar.
Lumbar puncture:
CSF examination carried out to establish or rule out meningitis. The risk of bacterial
meningitis is 0.6% -6.7%. Meningitis can accompany a seizure, even though seizures
usually are not the only signs of meningitis. Meningitis risk factors in patients
presenting with seizures and fever include the following:
3
B. Imaging
1. X-ray head and imaging such as computed tomography scan (CT scan) or
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is rarely done, not routine and just above
indications such as:
a. Persistent focal neurologic abnormalities (hemiparesis)
b. VI nerve paresis
c. Papilloedema
2. CT scan should be considered in patients with complex febrile seizures.
C. Another test (EEG)
Examination of electroencephalography (EEG) can not predict the recurrence
of seizures, or estimate the probability of occurrence of epilepsy in patients with
febrile seizures. Therefore not recommended.
Examination of EEG can be done on febrile seizures is not typical; for
example in children aged >6 years or focal febrile seizures.
EEG is not required pascakejang simple fever because the tape will prove the
form of non-epileptic or normal and the findings would not alter management. EEG
indicated for atypical febrile seizures or in children who are at risk for developing
epilepsy. Atypical febrile seizures include seizures that persist for more than 15
minutes, repeat for a few hours or days, and local seizures. Approximately 50% of
children suffer recurrent febrile seizures, and a small percentage suffer from recurrent
seizures repeatedly. Risk factors for the development of epilepsy as a complication of
febrile seizures is a positive family history of epilepsy, febrile seizures beginning
before age 9 months, long or atypical febrile seizures, signs of delayed development,

CASE REVIEW
Case :
Child who name AL 15 months, when she comes to the hospital mom said that
her daughter was fever since 07th September 2015 at 02:30 pm. Mother said that on 06th
September 2015 her daughter suffering from pharyngitis and on 07 th September 2015
02:30 pm her daughter was fever, cough and runny nose. Besides, AL also accompanied
by vomiting and a few moments later seizures but do not foaming from the mouth.
Before, the child never suffer or experience seizures, epilepsy, head trauma, meningitis,
acute otitis media. Disease was ever suffered by child are fever, cough, runny nose, but it
rarely happens. Mother said her daughter suffered from phayingitis since 2 month ago
and has already been checked to the doctor and was given medication but mother forget
the name of the medicine. For family information, no family suffering from epilepsy,
neurological disorders, infectious diseases of any kind.
