Clinical profile and short-term outcome of pediatric status epilepticus at a tertiary care hospital

Abstract

The condition known as status epilepticus is more common in children than it is in adults and can arise in a number of different contexts. It is most common in children who are ill with infections, as well as in patients who have a history of epilepsy, cerebral malformations, hypoxia, hypoglycemia, or who have experienced head trauma. The primary objectives of this research were to investigate the clinical profile and short-term outcomes of juvenile status epilepticus that occurred at a tertiary care facility.Status epilepticus, paediatric emergency, febrile seizures, and neurological injury are some of the terms that come to mind when thinking about this condition.
