Absence of epilepsy

The absence of epilepsy is mainly a disturbance of consciousness, which is characterized by a sudden onset without any warning. The patient's ongoing movement was suddenly interrupted, dazed, and accompanied by upturned eyes. If the patient is talking, his speech will slow down or stop; if he walks, he may suddenly stand still, like a chicken, or he may suddenly break away from the adult's hand and walk a few steps forward, and suddenly look back and cry for his parents; If chopsticks with food stopped suddenly while they were being sent to the mouth while eating, they could not answer the question, and some patients could stop the episode when people talked to them. This type of attack lasts from several seconds to 30 seconds, and it is rare to exceed one minute.
