Article Synopsis
- Febrile status epilepticus (SE) can develop from febrile seizures in about 5% of cases, but identifying it can be difficult, particularly when there are no clear motor symptoms.
- In a study of 18 children who experienced non-convulsive febrile status epilepticus (NCFSE) after a febrile seizure, common characteristics included altered awareness, abnormal posturing, and certain EEG patterns observed shortly after the seizure.
- Most children showed normal development and EEG results after treatment, although some had learning disabilities, and a few experienced relapses of NCFSE without progressing to afebrile seizures.
