心因性非癫痫发作的患病率难以估计。我们提出了一个基于计算的估计。我们使用了以下已知或估计的数据，这些数据被普遍接受。癫痫的患病率为0.5-1%;难治性癫痫的比例为20-30%;其中20-50%的患者被转诊至癫痫中心; 10- 20%的患者被转诊至癫痫中心，这些患者是心因性非癫痫性癫痫发作。使用较低的估计值，心因性非癫痫发作的患病率为1/50 000。使用较高的估计值，心因性非癫痫发作的患病率为1/3000。心因性非癫痫发作的患病率介于1/50 000和1/3000之间，或每100 000人中有2至33人，使其成为一种重要的神经系统疾病。(C)2000年，中国国际贸易有限公司
The prevalence of psychogenic non-epileptic seizures is difficult to estimate. We propose an estimate based on a calculation. We used the following data, which are known or have been estimated, and are generally accepted. A prevalence of epilepsy of 0.5-1%; a proportion of intractable epilepsy of 20-30%; a percentage of these referred to epilepsy centers of 20-50%; and a percentage of patients referred to epilepsy centers that are psychogenic non-epileptic seizures: 10-20%. Using the low estimates, the prevalence of psychogenic non-epileptic seizures would be 1/50 000. Using the high estimates, the prevalence of psychogenic non-epileptic seizures would be 1/3000. The prevalence of psychogenic non-epileptic seizures is somewhere between 1/50 000 and 1/3000, or 2 to 33 per 100 000, making it a significant neurologic condition. (C) 2000 BEA Trading Ltd.
