ObjectiveTo analyze the prognosis factors in status epilepticus and confirm the external validity of the Status Epilepticus Severity Score (STESS) prediction functions for outcome in patients with statusepilepticus. MethodsRetrospectively, collecting prognosis factors in status epilepticus of 50 patients. These factors include gender, age, SE aetiology, seizure type at SE onset, history of prior seizures or epilepsy, level of consciousness, duration of SE, albumin and infection. Using STESS score to evaluate the prognosis of patients, then evaluate the effectiveness of the STESS score. Results1. Single factor analysis:age,history of prior seizures or epilepsy, level of consciousness and infection were prognosis factors in status epilepticus (P<0.05). Gender, SE aetiology, seizure type at SE onset and albumin were not prognosis factors (P>0.05). Multivariablelogistic regression models selected two factors:duration of SE (OR3.645), level of consciousness (OR2.877). 2. 28 status epilepticus patient in the STESS 0-2 group were all alive. 10 status epilepticus patients in the STESS 3-6 group were died (45.4%), 12 patient were alive (54.6%). There were significant differences among the prognostic of patienst in different groups (P<0.01). The receiver operating characteristic curve for prediction of death by the STESS Score had an area under the curve of 0.92. The optimal cut-off point is 3. ConclusionAge, history of prior seizures or epilepsy, level of consciousness, duration of SE and infection were prognosis factors in status epilepticus. Level of consciousness and duration of SE were the directly related factors of the prognosis of status epilepticus. STESS score performed reasonable prognositic role on our patients with status epilepticus.
