Nx GEN SEQUENCING: COMPREHENSIVE EPILEPSY Test
Epilepsy is a neurological disorder that affects millions of people worldwide. It is characterized by recurrent seizures and can have a significant impact on a person’s quality of life. However, diagnosing epilepsy can be a challenge, as there are many different types of seizures and underlying causes. That’s where Nx Gen Sequencing comes in.
What is Nx Gen Sequencing?
Nx Gen Sequencing is a comprehensive genetic test that analyzes a patient’s DNA to identify potential genetic causes of epilepsy. This test uses next-generation sequencing technology to examine a patient’s DNA in detail, allowing for the detection of even the smallest genetic variations. This information can then be used to develop personalized treatment plans for patients with epilepsy.
What are the Symptoms of Epilepsy?
The symptoms of epilepsy vary depending on the type of seizure a person experiences. Some common symptoms include:
- Loss of consciousness
- Convulsions or shaking
- Staring spells
- Confusion
- Memory loss
- Unexplained injuries
If you or someone you know experiences any of these symptoms, it is important to seek medical attention right away.
Diagnosing Epilepsy
Diagnosing epilepsy can be a challenge, as there are many different types of seizures and underlying causes. A thorough medical history and physical exam are often the first steps in the diagnostic process. Additional tests, such as EEGs and brain imaging studies, may also be necessary.
Nx Gen Sequencing can be a valuable tool in diagnosing epilepsy, as it can identify potential genetic causes of the disorder. This information can then be used to develop personalized treatment plans for patients.
Comprehensive Epilepsy Test Cost
The cost of the Comprehensive Epilepsy Test using Nx Gen Sequencing is INR 23400.
The Benefits of Nx Gen Sequencing
Nx Gen Sequencing offers many benefits for patients with epilepsy, including:
- Identification of potential genetic causes of epilepsy
- Personalized treatment plans based on a patient’s unique genetic makeup
- Improved diagnostic accuracy
- Early detection of potential complications
Overall, Nx Gen Sequencing can help improve the quality of life for patients with epilepsy by providing personalized, targeted treatment plans based on their unique genetic makeup.
Conclusion
If you or someone you know experiences symptoms of epilepsy, it is important to seek medical attention right away. Nx Gen Sequencing can be a valuable tool in diagnosing epilepsy and developing personalized treatment plans for patients. With a cost of INR 23400, this test offers many benefits for patients with epilepsy and can help improve their quality of life.

Epilepsy is a neurological disorder in which brain activity becomes abnormal, causing seizures or periods of unusual behavior, sensations and sometimes loss of awareness. It refers to a clinical phenomenon rather than a single disease entity and can run in families. Some people with epilepsy simply stare blankly for a few seconds during a seizure, while others repeatedly twitch their arms or legs. At least two unprovoked seizures are generally required for a diagnosis of epilepsy. Mutations in certain genes have been identified as a cause of brain malformations which can lead to epilepsy. Many inherited epilepsies are due to mutations affecting the ion channel function. Early childhood epilepsy is due to De novo mutations.
