摘要
The acute care and further management plans accorded to eight children, all already on treatment for epilepsy, admitted to hospital with a total of 17 episodes of convulsive status epilepticus were examined. Emergency treatment was appropriate, but longer-term management tended to be less than adequate. The causes of status epilepticus were not considered before discharge on 10 occasions. Advice on simple preventative measures was rarely given to the parents. Junior staff require further training in these areas.
