ABSTRACT

Syncope and epilepsy are common pediatric clinical symptoms and causes of paroxysmal loss of consciousness.They can be manifested as a sudden attack,transient and reversible loss of consciousness,easily leading to misdiagnosis in clinics.The etiology and pathogenesis of syncope and epilepsy are completely different,and the principle of treatment is also different.Therefore,in clinics,making an early diagnosis and differential diagnosis between syncope and epilepsy has an important significance to improve the treatment and the prognosis of the patients.
