  • Prognostic analysis of status epilepticus

    Objective To study the factors that affect the prognosis of status epilepticus (SE) and to improve the understanding of clinicians. Methods A retrospective analysis of 57 patients with SE witch from the General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University and Cardio-cerebrovascular Disease Hospital were carried out to collect their clinical data. The data were analyzed by SPSS 17.0 software. The prognosis of the patients was assessed by the Status epilepticus severity score (STESS) scale. Results A total of 57 patients were included, 53 cases improved, 4 cases were automatically discharged. Telephone follow-up showed that 4 cases of automatic discharge were dead. The mortality rate of SE was 7.02%. The most common cause of SE was acute cerebrovascular disease (17.54%), followed by intracranial infection (10.53%); The most common incidence were the occasional medication, self-medication, withdrawal (15.79%). Age, state of consciousness and concurrent infection were associated with prognosis (improvement/death) (P<0.05). STESS score of 0 to 2 points were 45 patients, all improved; score of 3 to 5 points were 12 patients, 8 patients improved, 4 patients died. There were significant differences in the prognosis between the two groups (P<0.05). Conclusions Age, state of consciousness, concurrent infection were related to prognosis, more than 65 years, the state of consciousness for the sleeping or coma had the poor prognosis. STESS scale can predict the prognosis of patients effectively.
