Shah AM et al. – Status epilepticus is divided into convulsive and non–convulsive types; both are associated with significant morbidity and mortality.

Successful management depends on a comprehensive approach that involves diagnostic testing and pharmacological interventions while ensuring cerebral oxygenation and perfusion at all times.
