RESUMEN
Una primera crisis epiléptica en pacientes adultos es un problema común en la
práctica clínica y su manejo representa un desafío para los médicos. El objetivo de
esta revisión es proporcionar un abordaje clínico sistemático para la clasificación,
diagnóstico y tratamiento de los pacientes que han experimentado una primera
crisis porque ello podría auxiliar al clínico a reconocer y tratar apropiadamente esta
afección. Debido a que una primera crisis puede tener diversas causas, es esencial
identificar si el evento correspondió a una crisis provocada (sintomática aguda) o
no provocada. Por tanto, la clasificación adecuada de la crisis es fundamental para
establecer la duración del abordaje diagnóstico, la necesidad de una intervención
terapéutica y el pronóstico en cada caso. Los pacientes diagnosticados con una
crisis única no provocada requieren la realización de un electroencefalograma y
una resonancia magnética para estimar el riesgo de recurrencia e identificar a los
pacientes que cumplen criterios diagnósticos de epilepsia. Asimismo, se recomienda
individualizar el tratamiento con fármacos antiepilépticos para reducir el riesgo de
recurrencia temprana (≤ 2 años), debido a que esto puede producir efectos adversos.
Por último, señalamos algunas áreas de incertidumbre para incentivar la investigación
a futuro en este tema.
