Evaluation and Management of Seizures in the Emergency Department
Seizures are a common complaint in both children and adults presenting to the emergency department. Seizures may stop prior to physician evaluation, may be ongoing upon presentation, or may occur after the patient is brought to the ED. Patients may be experiencing a seizure for the first time in their lives or may be suffering from chronic epilepsy.
