A very nice Review was recently published in The Lancet Neurology on status epilepticus, focused on advances in diagnosis and management. #criticalcare #epilepsy #neurology @thelancet.bsky.social www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

Diagnosis and management of status epilepticus: improving the status quo

Status epilepticus is a common neurological emergency that is characterised by prolonged or recurrent seizures without recovery between episodes and associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. Prompt recognition and targeted therapy can reduce the risk of complications and death associated with status epilepticus, thereby improving outcomes. The most recent International League Against Epilepsy definition considers two important timepoints in status epilepticus: first, when the seizure does not self-terminate; and second, when the seizure can have long-term consequences, including neuronal injury.
