ABSTRACT
Pediatric status epilepticus requires prompt recognition and treatment in the emergency department. When left untreated, status epilepticus can lead to neuronal death, neuronal injury, and alteration of neuronal networks, depending on the type and duration of the seizures. This issue reviews the International League Against Epilepsy definition of status epilepticus and provides recommendations for the evaluation and management of pediatric patients presenting to the emergency department in status epilepticus.
