A31-YEAR-OLD COMPUTER CONSULTANT was admitted to the hospital for intractable nausea and vomiting. He had presented 18 months earlier with a perforated bowel after a long history of Crohn’s disease. At surgical exploration he was found to have a perforated appendiceal cancer with omental and peritoneal metastases treated with a right hemicolectomy and ...

Neurology, 1998
Mortality and morbidity associated with status epilepticus (SE) are, to a large extent, determined by the etiology underlying SE and the rapidity with which seizures are controlled.1 Most patients with SE will respond to aggressive treatment protocols that include repeated high doses of phenytoin, phenobarbital, and benzodiazepine.

Status epilepticus: Refractory and super-refractory
Neurology India, 2017Status epilepticus (SE) is an important neurological emergency. It is defined as seizures lasting for 5 minutes or more or recurrent seizures without recovery of consciousness to baseline between the attacks. Refractory SE (RSE) is defined as SE persisting despite sufficient dose of benzodiazepines and at least one antiepileptic drug (AED ...

Refractory status epilepticus (RSE) is a common problem in intensive care units and emergency departments. The important risk factor predisposing patients with SE to RSE is delay in receiving treatment. Self-sustaining SE is associated with progressive, time-dependent development of pharmacoresistance.

Interferon-Associated Refractory Status Epilepticus
Pediatrics, 1994Interferons have been used since the early 1980s for their antiviral, antiproliferative, and immunomodulatory actions to treat a variety of oncologic, infectious, and autoimmune disorders. Although many patients experience mild neurologic adverse effects with the administration of interferon, serious neurologic adverse effects are uncommon.1 We report ...

Neuromodulation in Super-refractory Status Epilepticus
Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology, 2021Summary: Status epilepticus (SE) is a severe condition that needs immediate pharmacological treatment to tackle brain damage and related side effects. In approximately 20% of cases, the standard treatment for SE does not control seizures, and the condition evolves to refractory SE.

VNS for refractory status epilepticus
Epilepsy Research, 2015Our goal was to perform a systematic review of the literature on the insertion of vagal nerve stimulators (VNS) for refractory status epilepticus (RSE) and its impact on the control of RSE.All articles from MEDLINE, BIOSIS, EMBASE, Global Health, HealthStar, Scopus, Cochrane Library, the International Clinical Trials Registry Platform, clinicaltrials ...

Hypothermia for Refractory Status Epilepticus
Neurocritical Care, 2008Status epilepticus (SE) can be refractory to conventional anticonvulsants, requiring anesthetic doses of medications to suppress seizures. This approach carries significant morbidity, is associated with a high fatality rate, and may not always control SE.

Epilepsy, Status Epilepticus, and Refractory Status Epilepticus
2017Epilepsy is a common nervous system disease that affects approximately 65 million people worldwide. Because it has diverse clinical manifestations, epilepsy is difficult to diagnose and treat. In contrast to epilepsy, status epilepticus (SE) is not self-terminating.

Pentobarbital treatment of refractory status epilepticus
Neurology, 1987We studied nine patients with status epilepticus refractory to standard therapy. In all patients so treated, IV pentobarbital terminated seizure activity. Mortality was high (77%) in those treated, but was attributed to underlying pathology and possibly to duration of status epilepticus.
