Optimizing phenobarbital dosing in critically ill patients with refractory and superrefractory status epilepticus using a population pharmacokinetic model

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Current weight‐based dosing fails to account for pharmacokinetic variability in refractory and superrefractory status epilepticus (RSE, SRSE). However, understanding pharmacokinetics in critically ill patients with varying degrees of organ dysfunction can improve both safety and efficacy.

Peripheral blood mononuclear cell secretome from patients with autoimmune encephalitis promotes seizures in vitro

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) is characterized by inflammatory processes in the central nervous system and frequently presents with seizures. Even though an ictogenic potential has been shown for some antibodies against neuronal surface antigens (NSAbs), AE pathophysiology is complex, and NSAbs‐independent mechanisms are likely to ...

An extreme type of new onset refractory status epilepticus with stimulus‐induced seizures in pharmacological isoelectric states

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Status epilepticus (SE) is a common neurological emergency associated with high morbidity and mortality. SE is classified as refractory when it persists despite benzodiazepine and second‐line antiseizure medication. Managing refractory SE in the intensive care setting often requires high doses of sedative drugs, which can induce ...
