Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When a patient has a seizure,documentation should include time of seizure onset,time of seizure termination,total duration of seizure,and characteristics of the seizure (e.g.,location of tonic or clonic movement,pupil changes,cyanosis,incontinence,and patient orientation level after the seizure).While it is a good idea to assess swallowing ability after a seizure,during the seizure is not the time to do this.
