Abstract
After convulsive status epilepticus, patients of all ages may have ongoing EEG seizures identified by continuous EEG monitoring. Furthermore, high EEG seizure exposure has been associated with unfavorable neurobehavioral outcomes. Thus, recent guidelines and consensus statements recommend many patients with persisting altered mental status after convulsive status epilepticus undergo continuous EEG monitoring. This review summarizes the available epidemiologic data and related recommendations provided by recent guidelines and consensus statements.
