Seizures - Epiphenomena or Contributors of Secondary Brain Injury

Seizures are increasingly recognized as a common occurrence after acute brain injuries with increased seizure burden being linked to worsened outcomes. Despite such evidence, there is a lack of information that treating electrographic seizures in the intensive care unit is associated with improved outcomes. In this webinar, we review data that evaluates the impact that seizures have on the injured brain within the intensive care unit environment and literature involving the risks and benefits of aggressive management against electrographic seizures and status epilepticus in neurocritical care.
