I have an employee with a pre-existing medical condition – epilepsy. During a seizure, he fell and broke his arm. Would this make the injury work related?

No, neither the seizure nor the broken arm are recordable. Injuries and illnesses that result solely from non-work-related events or exposures are not recordable.
