Complex Febrile Seizures: An Update

Journal of Pediatric Epilepsy, 2019
AbstractFebrile seizures are the most common seizures in childhood. Febrile seizures are divided into two groups: simple and complex. Simple febrile seizures (SFS) are generalized, short, and occur only once in 24 hours. Complex febrile seizures are prolonged, focal, or repeat more than once in 24 hours.

Utility of initial EEG in first complex febrile seizure

Epilepsy & Behavior, 2015
The risk of developing epilepsy following febrile seizures (FS) varies between 2% and 10%, with complex febrile seizures (CFS) having a higher risk. We examined the utility of detected epileptiform abnormalities on the initial EEG following a first CFS in predicting subsequent epilepsy.This was a retrospective study of consecutive patients (ages 6-60 ...

Pathogenetic role of monoamine metabolism in complex febrile seizures

Pediatric Neurology, 1999
To investigate the pathogenetic role of monoamine metabolism for febrile seizures, concentrations of homovanillic acid and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid were evaluated in the lumbar cerebrospinal fluid of affected children. This series included children who underwent lumbar puncture within 4 hours after seizures, at which time the lumbar cerebrospinal ...

Volumetric Magnetic Resonance Imaging Differences Between Complex Febrile Seizure and Recurrent Simple Febrile Seizure

Brain and Development
We investigated the volumetric differences in cortical and subcortical structures between patients with complex febrile seizure (FS) and recurrent simple FS. We aimed to identify the brain morphological patterns of children with complex FS.Twenty-five patients with complex FS and age- and sex-matched 25 patients with recurrent simple FS with structural

Paediatric Encephalopathy and Complex Febrile Seizures

International Journal of Current Pharmaceutical Review and Research
Background: Paediatric encephalopathy represents a spectrum of brain dysfunction in children, often associated with altered consciousness, motor deficits, and cognitive impairment. Complex febrile seizures are convulsions occurring in children aged 6 months to 5 years, characterized by prolonged duration (>15 minutes), focal features, or recurrence ...

Comparison of Laboratory Findings for Simple and Complex Febrile Seizures

Clinical Pediatrics
Febrile seizures (FS) are the most common convulsive disorder in childhood and are classified into simple and complex subtypes. Although blood tests are not routinely required, certain laboratory parameters may provide additional information for distinguishing these subtypes.

Trends in the Management of Complex Febrile Seizures Across Children’s Hospitals

Pediatric Emergency Care
Background and Objectives: Resource use for managing simple febrile seizures decreased after the publication of guidelines. Less is known about resource use for complex febrile seizures (CFS), for which no guidelines exist. The objective of this study was to evaluate trends in management of CFS.
