TL;DR

Early fever is highly prevalent in convulsive status epilepticus and appears to reflect seizure intensity rather than overall disease severity, suggesting no major prognostic impact, although a modest association cannot be excluded.

Therapeutic coma in non-convulsive status epilepticus is associated with increased complications and mortality: a retrospective cohort study

While therapeutic coma is an established escalation strategy in generalized convulsive status epilepticus, evidence for benefit in non-convulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) is limited and treatment-related complications may affect outcome. We performed a retrospective cohort study of patients with NCSE treated at a tert...

Response to: "Early benzodiazepine treatment and electrographic seizures after febrile status epilepticus".

We appreciate Inui et al.'s comments regarding the divergent prognostic outcomes of patients with electrographic seizures (ESz) between our studies. The poorer prognosis in their cohort compared to ours likely stems from three key differences. First, baseline disease severity significantly differed. Our cohort predomin...

Unraveling the mystery of status epilepticus: a retrospective study at a tertiary care centre from India

Introduction: Status epilepticus (SE) is a neurological emergency associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. Data from tertiary care centres in low- and middle-income settings remain limited, and the heterogeneity of aetiology, presentation, treatment response, and outcome continues to obscure clear prognosti...

Do Early Prognostic Measures Differentiate Mechanisms of ICU Death in Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage? An Analysis of Fatal Outcomes

Background/Objectives: In aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), intensive care unit (ICU) deaths may follow neurological or systemic pathways, but the relationship between early prognostic measures and the mechanism of death is unclear. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 261 consecutive adults with aSAH admitted...

Diagnostic Yield and Therapeutic Impact of Etiologic Investigations After Status Epilepticus: Insights From the ICTAL Registry.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Status epilepticus (SE) is a critical neurologic emergency requiring prompt symptomatic and etiologic treatment. However, the diagnostic yield of etiologic investigations remains poorly characterized. We aimed to evaluate the diagnostic yield and therapeutic impact of etiologic investigations...
