WASHINGTON, May 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The subtlety of childhood absence epilepsy (CAE) seizures, coupled with their close association with learning and mental health difficulties, can delay diagnosis despite CAE being one of the most common pediatric syndromes in the United States, according to a new expert-led clinical proceedings paper from the Clinical Neurological Society of America.

Key Points: 
  • Childhood absence epilepsy seizures are brief staring spells with loss of awareness that cannot be interrupted by voice or touch.
  • CAE may go undiagnosed or misdiagnosed because it can be mistaken for ADHD or be difficult for parents, teachers and other caregivers to recognize.
  • While CAE usually remits within two years of onset or by early adolescence, the impact on children's social and emotional health can be long term.
  • "Expanding awareness among the public of CAE is the first step to earlier diagnosis and treatment.
