Discussion – My Patient, 8 months old malay boy presented with chief complain
of cough for x1/52, loose stool x3-4/7, fever for x1/7 and first episode of fitting.
– From detail history taking , there are history where the child develop fitting, stiffness with jerky movement of bilateral upper and lower limb ( tonic clonic seizure) with uprolling of eyeball. There was no drooling of saliva and no bowel or urinary incontinence. The fitting duration was around 5 minutes and associated with post-ictal drowsiness.
– For more investigation to diagnose febrile fit and to eliminate other differential diagnosis, we can do some examination to confirm the febrile . the first one by physical examination , no neck stiffness, no trauma and no evidence of intracranial pathology or metbolic derangement.
– The treatment of febrile fit is divided into two which are diazepam 0.5 mg/kgBW if in fit and symptomatic (control fever) with antipyretic if not in fit.
