Treatment of Super-Refractory Status Epilepticus

Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2015
Super-refractory status epilepticus (SRSE) is a devastating neurological condition with limited treatment options. We conducted an extensive literature search to identify and summarize the therapeutic options for SRSE. The search mainly resulted in case reports of various pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic treatments.

Stiripentol for the treatment of super-refractory status epilepticus

Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 2015
To determine whether stiripentol (STP) might be a treatment option in super-refractory status epilepticus (SRSE).Medical records of patients treated due to a status epilepticus in Marburg between January 2013 and June 2014 were reviewed for administration of STP. Primary outcome measures were resolution of SE after initiation of STP.Five adult patients

Treatment options in pediatric super-refractory status epilepticus

Brain and Development, 2019
Super-refractory status epilepticus (SRSE) is a seizure that continues >24 h after anesthesia, or recurs on the reduction of anesthesia. SRSE is extremely difficult-to-control and associated with poor outcome. To date, optimal therapy and outcome data in children is limited.To assess etiology, treatment options and outcome in pediatric SRSE patients.We
