This clinical guideline on epilepsy contains levels of evidence and recommendations based on the scientific method. Its primary function is to provide emergency medicine physicians a clear diagnostic approach when they faced a pediatric or adult patient with epileptic seizures (ES) or epilepsy. The objective is to unify criteria; this will ensure integral health care, based on adequate decision-making, benefiting the patient through the individualized analysis of a correct anamnesis, physical examination, precise indication of laboratory, and image diagnostic tests that will allow the pertinent clinical and pharmacological treatment for opportune interventions, avoiding complications, and whenever possible, the recurrence of the ES.
