癲癇症(英語:Epilepsy)又稱腦癇症,是一種,特徵為反覆地癲癇發作,即為重複發作或長或短的嚴重抽搐症狀,可能會造成物理性傷害,甚至骨折。脑痫症的定義為患者在無誘發原因下持續重複地癲癇發作;因中毒等特定原因引發的單次性癲癇發作(英語:Isolated seizures)不歸類為脑痫症。脑痫症的治療方式在各地各有不同,患者常因其病況而遭到各種程度的汙名化。 大多數脑痫病例的肇因尚未理清,在少數病例中,有些係肇因於腦損傷、中風、腦腫瘤、腦部感染或先天性障礙,經而致病;而一小部分的脑痫病例與已知的基因突變直接相關。癲癇發作是大腦皮質中過度且異常的神經元活動所產生的結果。脑痫的診斷必須先排除其他可能造成類似症狀的情況,例如昏厥;以及判斷是否有其他造成發作的原因,例如酒精戒斷症候群或電解質方面的問題。這部分可以借助神經成像和血液檢查。異常的腦電圖檢查結果可以佐證脑痫的診斷,但正常的腦電圖檢查結果則無法排除脑痫的可能性。 由其他原因造成的脑痫症可能是可以預防的。70%的發作可藉由藥物控制,平價的抗發作藥物通常也不難取得。而無法以藥物控制的發作則可以考慮外科學,,或飲食調整。並不是所有的脑痫症都會持續終生,許多人的狀況可以改善到不再需要治療的程度。 截至2015年,有3,900萬人罹患脑痫,將近80%是在发展中國家。2015年全世界有12萬5千人因為脑痫而死亡,較1990年的11萬2千人要多一些。脑痫在年長者身上較容易出現。在已開發國家,新增的病例最常出現在嬰兒及年長者。在開發中國家,因為根本病因的差異,新增病例會以年齡較大的兒童及青年為主。有5%至10%的人會在80歲以前出現無故的癲癇發作,這些人中再次癲癇發作的比例佔40%至50%。許多地區的脑痫患者的駕駛資格會受限制,或是被要求必須一段時間沒有癲癇發作才能夠駕駛。 脑痫的英語「epilepsy」是源自古希臘語的「ἐπιλαμβάνειν」,為「侵襲、佔有、或折磨」之意。
