Status Epilepticus is a time-sensitive emergency, since untreated seizures lead to more seizures and delayed treatment contributes to morbidity and mortality. Providing sufficient evidence based treatment early is essential to improve patient outcomes. If your patient is actively seizing, refer to TREKK and EIIC’s Status Epilepticus Algorithm.
