In 2011, Epilepsy Action highlighted issues with the video for the Kanye West song "All of the Lights". Tests of the video showed that it failed the flashing images guidelines set down by UK broadcasting watchdog Ofcom and so was likely to trigger a seizure in someone with photosensitive epilepsy.
This video covers the different types of seizures, including partial seizures and its subtypes: simple partial and complex partial seizures, as well as generalized seizures and its subtypes: tonic, atonic, clonic, tonic-clonic, myoclonic, and absence seizures. It also briefly covers diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy.
Photosensitive epilepsy (PSE) is a form of epilepsy in which seizures are triggered by visual stimuli that form patterns in time or space, such as flashing lights, bold, regular patterns, or regular moving patterns. PSE affects approximately one in 4,000 people (5% of those with epilepsy).
In 2010, HardingTest.com was launched to provide users with a way of testing video remotely, without the need to have an in-house Harding FPA machine. This provided a much-needed service for freelance editors and production companies who previously had to export their movie to video tape to send to a larger post-production facility for testing, all of which increased time and expense.
A seizure is a paroxysmal episode of symptoms or altered behavior arising from abnormal excessive or synchronous brain neuronal activity. [5] A focal onset seizure arises from a biological neural network within one cerebral hemisphere, while a generalized onset seizure arises from within the cerebral hemispheres rapidly involving both hemispheres.
An aura is a perceptual disturbance experienced by some with epilepsy or migraine.An epileptic aura is actually a minor seizure. [1]Epileptic and migraine auras are due to the involvement of specific areas of the brain, which are those that determine the symptoms of the aura.
Epilepsy is a neuronal disorder with multifactorial manifestations. [8] It is a noncontagious illness and is usually associated with sudden attacks [ 9 ] of seizures, which are an immediate and initial anomaly in the electrical activity of the brain that disrupts part or all of the body. [ 8 ]
Ohtahara syndrome (OS), also known as Early Infantile Developmental & Epileptic Encephalopathy (EIDEE) [2] is a progressive epileptic encephalopathy.The syndrome is outwardly characterized by tonic spasms and partial seizures within the first few months of life, [3] and receives its more elaborate name from the pattern of burst activity on an electroencephalogram (EEG).
