South West ACPIN: Understanding and Managing Seizures in Neurological Patients

Understanding and Managing Seizures in Neurological Patients

South West ACPIN are pleased to offer the above online event. Join us for a practical overview of seizures in neurorehabilitation — from causes, presentations, and medical management to the differences between epilepsy and seizures secondary to brain injury. We’ll explore the risks of uncontrolled seizures, long-term impacts, and how to safely assess and adapt physiotherapy treatments. Learn when it is safe to mobilise, how to manage triggers during therapy (including FES, TENS, and digital tools), and gain confidence in supporting patients at high seizure risk.

Speaker

Peter O’Keefe – Speciality Doctor at North Bristol NHS Trust

Learning Outcomes:

Understand the pathophysiology, causes, classifications, and presentations of seizures, including differences between epilepsy and seizures secondary to other conditions.

Recognise the medical management of seizures, risks of uncontrolled events, and potential long-term consequences for neurological patients.

Apply safe physiotherapy practices by assessing seizure risk, planning mobilisation, and adapting treatments (e.g. FES, TENS, screen-based therapy) to minimise triggers.
