How do you define a ‘seizure emergency’?
When should a rescue medication be used?
What is the impact of route of administration on time to onset of effect?
These are just a few of the questions that will be asked during this audience participation event.
We will want to hear from you and your peers!
This program will aim to meet the following objectives:
  • Discuss the burden of seizure emergencies and importance of seizure action plans in all phases of life
  • Describe the recent consensus recommendations around defining seizure emergencies, including prolonged seizures and seizure clusters
  • Examine the available treatment options for terminating a seizure emergency
 
We hope you will join us for this session as we work together to improve the lives of patients who experience seizures.
