Abstract
Status epilepticus is a neurological emergency requiring prompt pharmacological intervention. Recent advances in the treatment of this condition include the introduction of treatment algorithms that are tailored more specifically to clinical situations, a trend towards more aggressive therapies if initial treatment with front-line agents fail, and a better understanding of the role of treatment for patients in status epilepticus in the out-of-hospital setting.
