Nonconvulsive status epilepticus
The American Journal of Emergency Medicine, 1997A 49-year-old man presented with dizziness and altered behavior associated with a nonconvulsive seizure. He had a long history of well-controlled tonic-clonic seizures and daily episodes of 10-second staring spells. Despite normal neurological and laboratory examinations, an emergent electroencephalogram showed changes consistent with nonconvulsive ...

Nonconvulsive Status Epilepticus
Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 2011Nonconvulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) refers to a prolonged seizure that manifests primarily as altered mental status as opposed to the dramatic convulsions seen in generalized tonic-clonic status epilepticus. There are 2 main types of NCSE, each of which has a different presentation, cause, and expected outcome.

Nonconvulsive status epilepticus
Neurology, 1996Nonconvulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) is protean in its clinical manifestations and often difficult to recognize. It is clearly underdiagnosed. It has a tremendous variety of precipitants or causes. The complexity in categorization or classification makes it difficult to determine its morbidity or consequences. NCSE comprises many different illnesses,

European Neurology, 1988
We studied a case of focal status epilepticus with aphasia as the sole manifestation, lasting 21 days. A 77-year-old woman developed aphasic seizures followed by aphasic status epilepticus 10 months after a left temporo-occipital hemorrhage. The diagnosis was made only after EEG, and seizures were stopped by anticonvulsant medication.

Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2005
Although conventional anticonvulsant agents can terminate status epilepticus in most cases, a substantial minority of patients develops medically refractory status and requires more aggressive care. This review explores the options available.Increasing numbers of previously unexpected etiologies for refractory status epilepticus continue to be reported.

Drug and Therapeutics Bulletin, 1996
Generalised convulsive status epilepticus (GCSE) is a medical emergency. The mortality in patients with GCSE admitted to an intensive care unit is about 5-10%.1 If figures for the USA can be applied to the UK, about 30,000 episodes of status epilepticus occur here each year.2 In this article we discuss the management of GCSE, concentrating on ways of ...

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 1999
Generalized convulsive status epilepticus (GCSE) is a medical emergency that must be treated rapidly and aggressively to prevent neuronal damage. Treatment should be initiated with intravenous lorazepam, 0.1 mg/kg, given at a rate of no more than 2 mg/min.

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.
