DOI: 10.1002/epi4.12358
Abstract: In Western settings, non‐convulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) and non‐convulsive seizures (NCSz) are associated with high mortality. In comatose patients, interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) identified on routine electroencephalogram (EEG) are predictive of NCSE/NCS. Little is known… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jocn.2018.06.024
Abstract: Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by recurrent and unpredictable interruptions of normal brain function, that implies neurobiologic, psychological, and social consequences. Non-convulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) is an electro-clinical state associated to altered level of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jocn.2019.05.035
Abstract: Metabolic encephalopathy and Non-Convulsive Status Epilepticus (NCSE) have been reported with cephalosporin use, particularly cefepime. We aimed to analyze the clinical and EEG findings in patients with cephalosporin-related neurotoxicity (CRN) at our hospital identified via… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/14737175.2017.1369880
Abstract: ABSTRACT Introduction: Non-convulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) is a complex and diverse condition which is often an under-recognised entity in the intensive care unit. When NCSE is identified the optimal treatment strategy is not always clear.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ane.12722
Abstract: EEG monitoring is increasingly used in critically ill patients, but impact on clinical outcome remains unclear. We aimed to investigate the benefit of repeated extended EEG in the prognosis of patients with non‐convulsive status epilepticus… read more here.

Non‐convulsive seizures and non‐convulsive status epilepticus in neuro‐intensive care unit
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Acta Neurologica Scandinavica"
DOI: 10.1111/ane.13718
Abstract: Most seizures in critical ill patients are non‐convulsive, and some patients may develop non‐convulsive status epilepticus (NCSE), a state of continuous or repetitive seizures without convulsions. With the growing use of continuous electroencephalogram (EEG) monitoring… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/practneurol-2017-001623
Abstract: We report an adult with acute unilateral pain as isolated manifestation of acute symptomatic focal non-convulsive status epilepticus. Pain is rarely a manifestation of epileptic seizures. Traditionally, painful seizures have been thought to originate in… read more here.

Abstract: Non-convulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) is an enigmatic condition with protean manifestations. It often goes unrecognised, leading to delays in its diagnosis and treatment. The principal reason for such delay is the failure to consider and… read more here.

Abstract: Non-convulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) is a prolonged epileptic seizure with subtle symptoms that may delay clinical diagnosis. Emerging experimental evidence shows brain pathology and epilepsy development following NCSE. New diagnostic/prognostic tools are therefore needed for… read more here.
