Infantile Spasms (IS) are a medical emergency. Infantile Spasms are a rare, but serious type of seizure, occurring in 1 in 2,000 children, which can cause catastrophic, permanent damage to a child’s developing brain. The seizures include repetitive, but often subtle movements — including jerking of the mid-section, dropping of the head, raising of the arms or wide-eyed blinks.
We're raising awareness about Infantile Spasms in hopes of a brighter future.
