Registry study for people with status epilepticus
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study records information about people who are in the hospital with status epilepticus (prolonged seizure activity) to better understand care for refractory cases. If you qualify, your team may collect your clinical details during your hospital stay rather than giving a new treatment as part of the study.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are age 18 or older
- You are admitted for status epilepticus as the main reason for hospitalization, or it is found during your current acute hospital stay
- Your status epilepticus is identified by the hospital during this admission
- You are not in the study if your status epilepticus happened after a cardiac arrest

This study looks at how people recover after a prolonged seizure (status epilepticus) in the intensive care unit. It tests thinking and memory skills, and may include a follow-up MRI, to learn more about the brain's healing process.
This trial studies whether using EEG (a brain-wave test) in the ICU can help guide care for people whose seizures keep going despite initial medicines. It may benefit patients with severe, difficult-to-stop status epilepticus by improving how doctors find and treat ongoing seizure activity.
This trial is for adults in the intensive care unit who are having seizures that last at least 5 minutes or keep coming back without fully recovering. It tests a study approach for managing a dangerous seizure emergency and may help doctors improve care for critically ill patients.
This study interviews people who had a severe, prolonged seizure (status epilepticus) and were treated in intensive care. It asks how they feel and what they experienced 3 months to 5 years later.
This study uses a quick brain wave test (EEG) to help doctors spot ongoing seizure activity in children who are thought to have status epilepticus, a type of long-lasting seizure. The results may help guide treatment faster.
This study looks at adults who had a serious, long-lasting seizure emergency called status epilepticus. It aims to better understand what happened and may help improve care for similar patients in the future.
