Abstract
- The article presents information about abstracts of various papers that will be discussed at the Novartis Satellite Symposium that will be held on June 1, 2004. One of the papers that will be discussed is "Laying the Foundations for Epilepsy Diagnosis and Treatment," by P. Ryvlin. The accurate diagnosis and optimal care of patients with de novo partial seizures offer many challenges to the physician. Auras, when isolated or associated with minor loss of awareness, are often misinterpreted as reflecting psychiatric or cardiovascular disorders, leading to an average delay of several years before the epilepsy can be recognized. Other papers that will be discussed are "Modern AED Monotherapy: Fulfilling the Needs of Growing Children With Partial Seizures," by B. Bourgeois and "Time for Change? Oxcarbazepine Monotherapy in the Diverse Adult Population," by D. Schmidt.
