Epilepsy is a neurological disorder that affects millions of people worldwide. It is characterized by recurrent seizures, which can vary in frequency and intensity. Managing epilepsy requires a comprehensive treatment approach that addresses both the physical and emotional aspects of the condition. At Kliniken Schmieder, we offer state-of-the-art epilepsy treatment that is tailored to each individual’s needs.
Our Approach
At Kliniken Schmieder, we believe in a multidisciplinary approach to epilepsy treatment. Our team of experts includes neurologists, neurosurgeons, neuropsychologists, and rehabilitation specialists, who work together to provide comprehensive care. We understand that every patient is unique, and we take the time to develop an individualized treatment plan that addresses their specific needs.
Medical Interventions
Our team of neurologists and neurosurgeons are experts in the diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy. We utilize the latest diagnostic tools, such as EEG (electroencephalogram) and MRI (magnetic resonance imaging), to accurately diagnose the condition and identify the underlying cause. Depending on the severity of the epilepsy, we may recommend medication management or surgical intervention.
Medication Management
For patients with mild to moderate epilepsy, medication management is often the first line of treatment. Our neurologists are experienced in prescribing and adjusting antiepileptic medications to achieve optimal seizure control. We closely monitor patients and make adjustments to their medication regimen as needed to ensure the best possible outcome.
Surgical Intervention
In cases where medication management is not effective, or when the epilepsy is caused by a structural abnormality in the brain, surgical intervention may be required. Our team of neurosurgeons specializes in epilepsy surgery, including resective surgery and neuromodulation techniques. We work closely with our patients to determine the most appropriate surgical approach and provide comprehensive pre- and post-operative care.
Rehabilitation and Support Services
Living with epilepsy can be challenging, both physically and emotionally. At Kliniken Schmieder, we offer a range of rehabilitation and support services to help patients manage their condition and improve their quality of life. Our neuropsychologists provide cognitive and behavioral therapy to address the cognitive and emotional aspects of epilepsy. Additionally, our rehabilitation specialists offer physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy to help patients regain independence and improve their functional abilities.
