患有癫痫的狗是兽医实践中最常见的神经系统患者之一，因此历来在定义、临床方法和管理方面引起了广泛关注。多年来，已发表了许多犬癫痫分类提案，部分反映了人类癫痫组织国际抗癫痫联盟 (ILAE) 的当前提案。然而，兽医和人类神经学家、神经科学家、从业者、神经药理学家和神经病理学家之间使用的分类和术语尚未达成共识，即“共同语言”。这导致了一种不幸的情况，即不同的兽医出版物和癫痫教科书章节仅反映了作者个人对术语的偏好，这可能会让读者感到困惑，并影响一线实践和研究中癫痫的定义和诊断。在本文件中，国际兽医癫痫工作组 (IVETF) 讨论了目前对犬癫痫的理解，并提出了我们 2015 年关于癫痫和癫痫发作的术语和分类的提案。我们提出了一个分类系统，它反映了人类 ILAE 的新思想，但也植根于以前广为接受的术语。我们认为这个分类系统可以被所有利益相关者使用。
Dogs with epilepsy are among the commonest neurological patients in veterinary practice and therefore have historically attracted much attention with regard to definitions, clinical approach and management. A number of classification proposals for canine epilepsy have been published during the years reflecting always in parts the current proposals coming from the human epilepsy organisation the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE). It has however not been possible to gain agreed consensus, "a common language", for the classification and terminology used between veterinary and human neurologists and neuroscientists, practitioners, neuropharmacologists and neuropathologists. This has led to an unfortunate situation where different veterinary publications and textbook chapters on epilepsy merely reflect individual author preferences with respect to terminology, which can be confusing to the readers and influence the definition and diagnosis of epilepsy in first line practice and research studies. In this document the International Veterinary Epilepsy Task Force (IVETF) discusses current understanding of canine epilepsy and presents our 2015 proposal for terminology and classification of epilepsy and epileptic seizures. We propose a classification system which reflects new thoughts from the human ILAE but also roots in former well accepted terminology. We think that this classification system can be used by all stakeholders.
