The future treatment of status epilepticus.

To attempt an analysis of the future of treatment for status epilepticus, the author divided the goals of status treatment into several categories: clinical, research, economic, and equity. This paper is based on a lecture presented at the 9th London-Innsbruck Colloquium on Status Epilepticus and Acute Seizures, in London 8-10 April 2024.

Glucose Control and Risk of Symptomatic Intracerebral Hemorrhage Following Thrombolysis for Acute Ischemic Stroke: A SHINE Trial Analysis.

Background And Objectives: Baseline hyperglycemia is associated with worse outcomes in acute ischemic stroke (AIS), including higher risk of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH) following treatment with thrombolysis. Prospective data are lacking to inform management of post-thrombolysis hyperglycemia. In a prespecified analysis from the Stroke Hyperglycemia Insulin Network Effort (SHINE) trial of hyperglycemic stroke management, we hypothesized that post-thrombolysis hyperglycemia is associated with a higher risk of sICH.

Post-Cardiac Arrest Care in Adult Patients After Extracorporeal Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation.

Objectives: Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) serves as a lifesaving intervention for patients experiencing refractory cardiac arrest. With its expanding usage, there is a burgeoning focus on improving patient outcomes through optimal management in the acute phase after cannulation. This review explores systematic post-cardiac arrest management strategies, associated complications, and prognostication in ECPR patients.
