Popis: | Psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES) is a disorder that mimics epilepsy, but does not have the associated organic changes or abnormal neuronal discharge foci in the brain. In this article the diagnosis, management and clinical considerations of managing this condition in the UK Armed Forces are considered. The occupational and operational considerations for the military environment are also discussed. |
