Prophylactic antiseizure medications for recurrent status epilepticus in nonsyndromic childhood epilepsy.

Purpose: The management of status epilepticus (SE) has mainly focused on the termination of ongoing SE episodes. However, long-term therapeutic strategies for the prevention of SE are lacking. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of prophylactic antiseizure medications (ASMs) for SEs in nonsyndromic childhood epilepsy.
