Can Grand Mal seizure be cited as cause of death in someone who does not have epilepsy?

Yes, a Grand Mal seizure, also known as a generalized tonic-clonic seizure, can potentially be cited as a cause of death in someone who does not have epilepsy. This can occur in rare cases due to complications such as status epilepticus, which is a prolonged seizure, or sudden unexplained death in epilepsy (SUDEP), even in individuals without a prior diagnosis of epilepsy. Other underlying health conditions or triggers may also contribute to the risk of fatality from a seizure. However, such occurrences are uncommon and typically require thorough investigation to determine the exact cause.
