SeizuresSeizures
• Paroxysmal and abnormaldischarge of neurons that resultsin prolonged electrical activity ofthe brain
• Excessive discharges aremanifested by the clinical signswe know as seizures.
SeizuresSeizures
• Abrupt onset
• Altered LOC
• Brief duration
• Rapid recovery
• Recurrent stereotypic episodes
“An Electrical Storm”“An Electrical Storm”
• Rapid firing of impulses
• Like VF of the brain

Incidence
No statistics on total number of Americanshaving seizures annually but…Seizures account
for 1% of ED visits (1 million annually)– Seizure accounts for higher proportions of ED visits among infants
and toddlers, males and Blacks
4 million Americans have epilepsy
– more males
– more African-Americans
Causes
Ionic Changes– pH
– Electrolyte Imbalances
– Hyperventilation
Metabolic Changes– Hypoglycemia
– Fever
– Stress
– Fatigue
Neuronal StructuralChanges
– Hypoxia
– Trauma
– Tumors
– Vascular Insufficiency
Epilepsy StatsEpilepsy Stats
• 50% have seizure before age 20
• Age is often related to etiology

Vagus Nerve StimulationVagus Nerve Stimulation
• Used for Partial Seizures
• Vagus nerve goes to parts of thebrain that may be responsible forthe activity
• Similar to a “pacemaker” for theheart

Status EpilepticusStatus Epilepticus
• 5% Epileptics
• 10-20% mortality due to Anoxia &Acidosis
• Definition: greater than 30 min ofcontinuous seizure activity, more than2 sequential seizures without fullrecovery of consciousness betweenactivity.
Status EpilepticusStatus Epilepticus
• Definition:
2 or more seizures without a periodof lucidity
• Can be life threatening
Incidence of Status Epilepticus

Management of StatusEpilepticus
Recognize this life threatening emergency!
Protect the patient from injury
Airway management, O2, Monitor
IV access, Normal Saline KVO
Check blood sugar level
IV Benzodiazepine, per protocol
**This patient may require BVM ventilation
**Be prepared for cardiac arrest
• Seizures lasting greater than 30 minmaybe associated with increasedneuronal injury.
• Initiate therapy after greater than 5min of continuous seizure activity.
• 12% of pts with epilepsy present withseizures lasting at least 30 min.
• 20% will have SE within 5 yrs

Seizure MedsSeizure Meds
• Control seizure
Cerebyx(Fosphenytoin)20mg/kg
Dilantin?
• Levels?
Use of Benzodiazepines
In some settings, this is controversial in theprehospital setting
– Prolonged seizures caused hypoxia and cellularand neuronal damage and death
– Benzodiazepines can cause respiratorydepression
Benzodiazepines
Potentiates the effects of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) an inhibitoryneurotransmitter, and depresses the CNS atthe limbic and subcortical levels of thebrain.
Used for 30 years
Controls status in 79% of patients
Can cause respiratory and CNS depression
