The highest priority and most appropriate nursing diagnosis at this time would be seizure precautions.  A tonic-clonic seizure is a type of seizure that is characterized by a loss of consciousness and muscle rigidity.

It is also known as a grand mal seizure. This type of seizure typically lasts for about one minute. During a tonic-clonic seizure, a person may lose control of their bladder or bowels. They may also bite their tongue.The highest priority and most appropriate nursing diagnosis at this time would be seizure precautions because there is a risk for injury related to loss of muscle control.Seizure activity can vary from brief periods of altered consciousness to prolonged convulsions and loss of consciousness.
