Adults discharged after an epileptic seizure: a model of 30-day risk for adverse outcomes.

Objectives: To develop a risk model to predict adverse outcomes within 30 days of discharge in adults attended by hospital emergency departments for an epileptic seizure.

Methods: ACESUR (Acute Epileptic Seizures in the Emergency Department) is a prospective multicenter, multipurpose registry of cases obtained by systematic sampling. We made follow-up telephone calls to registered patients 30 days after discharge.

[Care of adult patients with epileptic seizure in emergency departments (ACESUR Registry). Differences according to age ≥75 years].

Objectives: To determine whether there are differences in the profile and in the care of adult patients with epileptic seizures in emergency department according to age ≥75 years, and if this is independently associated with results in the emergency department and 30 days after discharge.

Material And Methods: ACESUR is a multicentre, prospective, observational cohort multipurpose register that was carried out in 2017. The distribution of the variables corresponding to the clinical presentation and care according to age ≥75 years were compared.

Differences in emergency department care of adults with a first epileptic seizure versus a recurrent seizure: a study of the ACESUR (Acute Epileptic Seizures in the Emergency Department) registr.

Objectives: To describe the characteristics of care received by patients who come to the emergency department with a first epileptic seizure versus a recurrent seizure in a patient with diagnosed epileps.

Material And Methods: ACESUR (Acute Epileptic Seizures in the Emergency Department) is a prospective multicenter, multipurpose registry of cases obtained by systematic sampling on even days in February and July 2017 and on odd days in April and October 2017. Patients were aged 18 years or older and had an emergency department diagnosis of epileptic seizure.
