What else can I help you with?
Can you stop breathing when having a fit?
Yes, during a seizure or fit, a person may experience changes in breathing, including temporary pauses or irregular breathing patterns. This can occur due to the body's response to the seizure activity in the brain. However, these breathing disturbances are usually short-lived, and normal breathing typically resumes once the seizure subsides. If someone is having a seizure, it's important to ensure their safety and seek medical assistance if necessary.
Why do you have to prevent injury in seizure patient?
A patient prone to seizures cannot protect themselves. A seizure causes falls. Once the seizure is underway, the patient needs (primarily) the head and airway protected. Seizure patients may also inhale saliva or vomit, which can then impair breathing.
What would you auscultate for in a seizure?
If you were going to do so, it would just be the standard heart rate and breathing.
When is one to be febrile?
It depends on how you are using the term. The terms febrile means to have a fever or to be excited. There is also a febrile seizure, and that is a type of seizure where the person's body temperature rises. It seems that upper respiratory infections or viruses precipitate those. So you would have to be sick or recovering from a recent illness to have this type of seizure. If you mean age, then you'd most likely be from six months to age six, and boys are twice as likely to suffer this than girls.

What happens during a seizure?
It depends on the type that it is. An absent seizure is often when someone loosed contact with reality, they will stare off at nothing without blinking, they will be unresponsive to any sound or touch. They will often ask if someone can repeat what they said. Sometimes they will stop breathing. And another type of seizure is when you begin to stare, then your body will lock up, you will be unable to breath correctly or at all, you will begin to shake and sometimes this makes the person sick.
Can seizures cause screaming?
I have never heard of someone screaming because of a seizure, how ever your body locks up and can cause painful cramps, during the seizure you are not breathing or you have very shot breath causing a suffocating feeling. Because you are now unaware of your surroundings you may react scared or that may also cause screaming.
