Misdiagnosis of epilepsy: many seizure-like attacks have a cardiovascular cause
Open accessAbstract
Objectives We sought to investigate the value of cardiovascular tests to diagnose convulsive syncope in patients with apparent treatment-resistant epilepsy.Background As many as 20% to 30% of epileptics may have been misdiagnosed. Many of these patients may have cardiovascular syncope, with abnormal movements due to cerebral hypoxia, which may be difficult to differentiate from epilepsy on clinical grounds.Methods Seventy-four patients (33 men, mean age 38.9 +/- 18 years [range 16 to 77]) who were previously diagnosed with epilepsy were studied. Inclusion criteria included continued attacks despite adequate anticonvulsant drug treatment (n = 36) or uncertainty about the diagnosis of epilepsy, on the basis of the clinical description of the seizures (n = 38). Each patient underwent a head-up tilt test and carotid sinus massage during continuous electrocardiography, electroencephalography and blood pressure monitoring. Ten patients subsequently underwent long-term electrocardiographic (ECG) monitoring with an implantable loop recorder.Results In total, an alternative diagnosis was found in 31 patients (41.9%), including 13 (36.1%) of 36 patients taking an anticonvulsant medication. Nineteen patients (25.7%) developed profound hypotension or bradycardia during the head-up tilt test, confirming the diagnosis of vasovagal syncope. One other patient had a typical vasovagal reaction during intravenous cannulation. Two patients developed psychogenic symptoms during the head-up tilt test. Seven patients (9.5%) had significant ECG pauses during carotid sinus massage. In two patients, episodes of prolonged bradycardia correlated precisely with seizures according to the insertable ECG recorder.Conclusions A simple, noninvasive cardiovascular evaluation may identify an alternative diagnosis in many patients with apparent epilepsy and should be considered early in the management of patients with convulsive blackouts.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
