Febrile seizures are commonly seen in emergency departments that treat children. Risk factors for initial and recurrent febrile seizures and epilepsy have been identified. Controversy still exists over the need for performing a lumbar puncture as part of the initial evaluation.

Neuroepidemiology, 1991
A door-to-door survey was carried out to screen a community of 14,010 people (Parsis living in colonies in Bombay, India) for possible neurological diseases. High school graduates, social workers, and a medical student administered a screening questionnaire that, in a pilot study, had a high sensitivity for identifying febrile seizures in children ...

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1987
The definition, prevalence, characteristics, genetics, and causes of febrile seizures are discussed in this article. Acute management is outlined, including indications for lumbar puncture and treatment of the febrile child who is continuing to seize. The usefulness and limitations of the EEG are noted.

AbstractFebrile seizures (FS) are the most common seizure disorder in childhood, affecting 2–5% of children between the ages of 3 and 60 months. Differentiation of FS from acute symptomatic seizures secondary to central nervous system infection is essential.

Carbamazepine in Febrile Seizures
Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1985Sir .—We read the article by Antony and Hawke 1 about the place of phenobarbital sodium or carbamazepine in the prophylaxis of febrile seizures with interest. In their double-blind trial they show that phenobarbital is the best anticonvulsant to prevent febrile seizures, and that carbamazepine is not effective. We do not share this viewpoint, based on

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2000
Febrile seizures should not be treated with continuous or intermittent antiepileptic medication. Parents should be given a comprehensive explanation as to the nature of this benign disorder and potential strategies to terminate prolonged seizures or clusters of seizures. Patients with complex febrile seizures (ie, those that are prolonged, focal, recur

To the Editor.— In a recent article in theArchives(35:17-21, 1978), Ellenberg and Nelson found no difference in later intellectual performance between children who had had febrile seizures and their seizure free siblings. On this basis, they claim that "febrile seizures, initial or recurrent, are not likely to cost the child a measurable decrement in ...
