Diverse manifestations determined by the region of the cortex activated by the seizure, lasting ≈ 20 to 60 sec.

Key feature is preservation of consciousness
Simple partial seizure
Impaired consciousness lasting ≈ 30 sec to 2 min, often associated with purposeless movements (e.g., lip smacking and wringing).
Complex partial seizure
Simple or complex partial seizure evolves into a tonic-clonic seizure with loss of consciousness and sustained contractions of muscles (tonic) throughout the body followed by periods of muscle contraction alternating with period of relaxation (clonic), typically lasting ≈ 1 to 2 min.
Partial seizure with secondarily generalized tonic-clonic seizure
Abrupt onset of impaired consciousness associated with staring and cessation of ongoing activities, typically lasting < 30 sec (aka petit mal); the only seizure type that does not cause brain damage.
Absence seizure
A brief (≈ 1 sec), shock-like contraction of muscles that may be restricted to part of one extremity or may be generalized.
Myoclonic seizure
Sustained contractions of muscles, typically lasting ≈ 1 to 3 min.
Tonic seizure
As described above for partial seizure with secondarily generalized tonic-clonic seizures except that it is not preceded by a partial seizure (aka grand mal).
Tonic-clonic seizure
A sudden loss of muscle tone, resulting in falling (“drop attack”), typically lasting ≈ secs
Atonic seizure
