Seizures are a dramatic manifestation of a serious disturbance in brain activity. A diverse variety of conditions and disorders can precipitate seizure activity in adults. Brain injury, brain swelling and increased pressure on the brain as well as chemical imbalances are common causes of adult seizure activity.
Often, no underlying cause can be found for absence seizures. Many children appear to have a genetic predisposition to them. Rapid breathing (hyperventilation) can trigger an absence seizure. In general, seizures are caused by abnormal electrical impulses from nerve cells (neurons) in the brain. The brain's nerve cells normally send electrical and chemical signals across the synapses that connect them.
