Abstract

In the period from 2018 to 2022, 66 enlisted military personnel with complaints of seizures with loss of consciousness were examined, selected for diagnosing epilepsy, as well as differential diagnosis of epileptic seizures and non-epileptic paroxysmal conditions. As a result, in 22.7%, the epileptic nature of the attacks was established, which is 3.6% of the total number of patients undergoing examination and treatment in a neurological hospital and 26.3% of ordinary military personnel discharged from 2018 to 2022. Taking into account that 73.3% of the subjects had clinical manifestations of the disease even before conscription, it is necessary to ensure a more thorough examination of patients with complaints of attacks with loss of consciousness during the period of pre-conscription training.
