Seizures Epidemiology Forecast 2025-2034

Around 10% of people worldwide will experience at least one seizure in their lifetime. Studies show that approximately 25% to 30% of new-onset seizures are likely to be provoked or secondary to another underlying cause. In older adults, the primary cause of seizures and epilepsy is often related to cerebrovascular disease.

Seizures Epidemiology Forecast Report Coverage

The “Seizures Epidemiology Forecast Report 2025-2034” offers comprehensive information on the prevalence and demographics of seizures. It projects the future incidence and prevalence rates of seizures across various populations. The study covers age, gender, and type as major determinants of the seizures-affected population. The report highlights patterns in the prevalence of seizures over time and projects future trends based on multiple variables.

The report provides a comprehensive overview of the disease, as well as historical and projected data on the epidemiology of seizures in the 8 major markets.

Regions Covered

• The United States
• Germany
• France
• Italy
• Spain

Seizures: Disease Overview

Seizures are defined as sudden, abnormal bursts of electrical activity in the brain. They can vary in severity and type, with symptoms ranging from brief lapses in awareness to intense shaking or convulsions. Seizures can be caused by conditions like fever, head injuries, infections, low blood sugar, dehydration, or even emotional stress. In some cases, seizures are caused by a brain disorder, such as epilepsy, or an underlying medical condition (a stroke or brain tumor).

Seizures: Treatment Overview

The treatment for seizures depends on the cause, type, and frequency of the seizures. Antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) are the primary treatment for preventing seizures. These medications help control the electrical activity in the brain and reduce the frequency of seizures. In cases where medications are not effective, surgery can be considered as an alternative treatment. Surgical options might include removing the part of the brain that causes the seizures or implanting a device to help regulate brain activity.

Epidemiology

The seizures epidemiology section offers information on the patient pool from history to the present as well as the projected trend for each of the 8 major markets. The publisher provides both current and predicted trends for seizures by examining a wide range of studies. Additionally, the report covers the diagnosed patient pool for seizures and their trends. The data is broken down into specific categories, such as total prevalent cases in males and females, and total diagnosed cases across different age groups and patient pools.

• According to the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 10% of people worldwide experience one seizure during their lifetime.
• As per a 2020 study published in The Lancet, the incidence of epilepsy is highest in both younger and older age groups, with a steady increase in cases after the age of 50. In older adults, the most common cause of seizures and epilepsy is cerebrovascular disease, such as stroke or other issues related to blood flow in the brain.
• It is estimated that nearly 150,000 people in the United States are diagnosed with epilepsy which causes seizures.
• Epilepsy is more prevalent in men than women, though the difference is relatively small, as per the Epilepsy Foundation.

Country-wise Seizures Epidemiology

The seizures epidemiology data and findings from the United States, Germany, Spain, Italy, France, the United Kingdom, Japan, and India are also provided in the epidemiology section.

The epidemiology of seizures varies between countries, owing to differences in factors such as the prevalence of infections (like meningitis, malaria, or neurocysticercosis), healthcare access, infectious diseases, socioeconomic factors, genetic predispositions, trauma rates, and lifestyle patterns. The Epilepsy Foundation states that around 1 in 100 people experienced a single unproved seizure or had an epilepsy diagnosis in the United States.

Scope of the Report

• The report covers a detailed analysis of signs and symptoms, causes, risk factors, pathophysiology, diagnosis, treatment options, and classification/types of seizures based on several factors.
• Seizures Epidemiology Forecast Report covers data for the eight major markets (the US, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, the UK, Japan, and India).
• The report helps to identify the patient population and the unmet needs of seizures are highlighted along with an assessment of the disease's risk and burden.
