Patient discussions
After an episode of convulsive status epilepticus or prolonged non-convulsive seizure (a non-convulsive seizure that continues for more than 2 minutes longer than a person's usual seizure), agree an emergency management plan with the person if they do not already have one and there is concern that status epilepticus may recur.[1] Inform patients with epilepsy about the risks of status epilepticus, and the importance of adhering to anticonvulsant treatment.
