OBJECTIVE To evaluate in-patient mortality and predictors of death associated with convulsive status epilepticus (SE) in a large, multi-center, pediatric cohort. PATIENTS AND METHODS We identified our cohort from the KID Inpatient Database for the years 1997, 2000, 2003 and 2006. We queried the database for convulsive SE, associated diagnoses, and for inpatient death. Univariate logistic test...
Objective Convulsive status epilepticus can exert profound cardiovascular effects in adults including ventricular depolarization-repolarization abnormalities. Whether status epilepticus adversely affects ventricular electrical properties in children is less understood. Therefore, we sought to characterize ventricular alterations and the associated clinical factors in children following convulsi...
OBJECTIVE New devices are needed for monitoring seizures, especially those associated with sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). They must be unobtrusive and automated, and provide false alarm rates (FARs) bearable in everyday life. This study quantifies the performance of new multimodal wrist-worn convulsive seizure detectors. METHODS Hand-annotated video-electroencephalographic seizu...
OBJECTIVE The pathophysiology of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) remains undetermined. Seizures are accompanied by respiratory dysfunction (RD). Postictal generalized electroencephalography (EEG) suppression (PGES) may follow generalized tonic-clonic seizures (GTCS). Following GTCS patients have impaired arousal and may be motionless. Patients with SUDEP are usually prone. Postictal...
Eversince its discovery by Gerletti and Bini (1938), electro-convulsive therapy (E. C. T.) has continued to occupy a central place in the therapeutic armamentarium of psychiatrists. Despite abhorrence from some quarters, it is still being practiced as one of the cheapest and safest, and yet one of the most effective therapeutic techniques in the whole of medical science (Kalinowsky, 1975; Royal...
The patient was getting lithium 1800 mg., Carbamazepine (CBZ) 800 mg. and I'henob.irbitone (PB) 60 mg./day. It is difficult, especially in an epileptic subject, to incriminate CBZ alone out of combination of these three drugs which interact with each other in a complex manner and influence seizure activity. Absctuc or scrum levels of PB and CBZ further limits the experimental design and the sco...
PURPOSE A definite diagnosis of psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES) usually requires in-patient video-electroencephalography (EEG) monitoring. Previous research has shown that convulsive psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES) demonstrate a characteristic pattern of rhythmic movement artifact on the EEG. Herein we sought to examine the potential for time-frequency mapping of data from a m...
INTRODUCTION Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological diseases in Latin American Countries (LAC) and epilepsy associated with convulsive seizures is the most frequent type. Therefore, the detection of convulsive seizures is a priority, but a validated Spanish-language screening tool to detect convulsive seizures is not available. We performed a field validation to evaluate the accuracy o...
PURPOSE To report the effectiveness and safety of intravenous levetiracetam in the treatment of children with acute repeated seizures, and status epilepticus in a children's hospital. METHODS This two-year observational study evaluated all in-patients who received intravenous levetiracetam to treat acute repeated seizures (ARS) or convulsive and non-convulsive status epilepticus (SE). Informa...
