The review describes current evidence on the evaluation of febrile seizures in the acute setting, the need for further outpatient assessment, and predictors regarding long-term outcomes of these patients.New evidence has been added in support of limited assessment and intervention: evidence on low utility of lumbar puncture, emergent neuroimaging, and ...

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.

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.

Febrile seizures (FS) is the most common seizures in childhood (2-4%). The diagnostic evaluation of the child with a FS can be very limited or moderately comprehensive. The primary concern is always the need to exclude meningitis. Recurrences are common, but only a small minority will go to develop epilepsy. The association between FS and temporal lobe

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

Summary:In the context of a prospective cohort study, we examined the associations between individual complex features of both first (n = 428) and recurrent (n = 240) febrile seizures and factors shown to predict outcome in children with febrile seizures.
