LCM has demonstrated efficacy in animal models of pharmacoresistant seizures. To date, ...

Nonconvulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) and epilepsia partialis continua (EPC) are common epileptic conditions for which straightforward recommendations based on controlled randomized trials for treatment in therapy refractory courses are lacking. In a large retrospective study on drug efficacy in status epilepticus (SE) we identified the patients treated in our department by searching for the ...
متن کاملRandomized study of intravenous valproate and phenytoin in status epilepticus

متن کاملIntramuscular versus intravenous benzodiazepines for prehospital treatment of status epilepticus.

The cost for inpatient care of patients in status ...
