Pediatric super‐refractory status epilepticus treated with allopregnanolone [PDF]

Annals of Neurology, 2014
Super‐refractory status epilepticus is a life‐threatening condition. Resistance to benzodiazepine and barbiturate treatment for this disorder is thought to be due to internalization of synaptic γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA)Areceptors, and withdrawal of benzodiazepines and barbiturates during treatment often triggers seizure recurrence.

Status epilepticus (SE) is a life-threatening condition with a mortality of up to 60% in the advanced and comatose forms of SE. In one out of five adults, first and second line fails to control epileptic activity, leading to refractory status epilepticus (RSE) and in around 3% to super-refractory status epilepticus (SRSE), where SE continues despite ...

Therapeutic augmentation of ketogenic diet with a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor in a super-refractory status epilepticus patient

Epilepsy and Behavior Case Reports, 2018
Background: A ketogenic diet (KD) may have a role in treating patients in super-refractory status epilepticus (SRSE). Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have a risk of ketoacidosis that could facilitate induction of KD.

Super-Refractory Status Epilepticus

Clinical EEG and Neuroscience, 2014
Super-refractory status epilepticus (SE; ie, SE continuing or recurring despite 24 hours of general anesthesia) is a severe condition with high percentage of mortality and morbidity. Usually, this condition occurs because of serious brain damage; nevertheless, some patients develop super-refractory SE without identifiable etiology.
