ELECTROGRAPHIC SEIZURES AND PERIODIC DISCHARGES AFTER INTRACEREBRAL HEMORRHAGE (2008, background): “The International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) definition of seizures was not designed for use in encephalopathic patients.(4) Many of the known clinical manifestations of seizures will not be detectable in encephalopathic ICU patients.”
Standards for epidemiologic studies and surveillance of epilepsy (2011, background): “Based on current ILAE definitions we propose that an epileptic seizure be defined in principle as ‘‘a transient occurrence of signs and/or symptoms due to abnormal excessive or synchronous neuronal activity in the brain’’ (Fisher et al., 2005).”
A review of channel selection algorithms for EEG signal processing (2015, background): “The International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) and the International Bureau for Epilepsy (IBE) presented a definition for the epileptic seizure as “ a transit occurrence of signs and/or symptoms due to abnormal excessive or synchronous neuronal activity in the brain ” [11].”

The relationship between different dimensions of alcohol use and the burden of disease—an update (2017, background): “However, in terms of public health, the effect of alcohol use on the development of epilepsy and seizures not resulting directly from alcohol withdrawal is more important ([224–228]; for an exact definition see [229]).”
