Abstract
:
Objectives: To identify high risk groups for the development of convulsive status epilepticus (CSE) in an attempt to decrease the incidence and to determine both the time to access to medical care and the use of prehospital treatment in an attempt to reduce the duration of seizing. Methods: Retrospective study record analysis of all cases of CSE in children, at the King Abdul-Aziz University Hospital, Jeddah, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia from June 1997 to June 2000. Results: During the study period there were 24 cases of CSE. The major etiologic factors were chronic neurological disorders, idiopathic epilepsy, and acute cerebral insults. All but one of the chronic epileptics in the study group had at least one identifiable risk factor for the evolution of breakthrough seizures into status epilepticus (SE)
