Abstract
Seizures are an early sign of brain injury in newborns. These seizures are in most cases repetitive or associated with asymptomatic electrographic seizures. Despite the relative resistance of the immature brain to seizure-induced brain damage, there is more and more evidence that neonatal seizures impair normal brain development. This review addresses the changes associated with neonatal seizures and discusses current and future potential neuroprotective strategies.
