Seizures are defined as a “paroxysmal electrical discharge of the neurones in the brain resulting in a change of function or behaviour”. All of us involved in Emergency Care will encounter patients with seizures which can occur for a number of reasons, with Epilepsy affecting 1 in 100 people in the UK.
Being able to identify the cause, terminate ongoing seizures and provide ongoing investigation and care is complicated and of paramount importance, as some of these episodes carry with them a high morbidity and mortality rate.
In this episode of Roadside to Resus we run through the following;
The scale of the problem
Causes of seizures
Definition of status epilepticus
Different forms of seizures
Clinical assessment
Investigations
Antiepileptic’s
Management& guidelines; both Pre and In-hospital
RSI for status epilepticus
Follow up and guidance
