Clinical Policy: Critical Issues for the Evaluation and Management of Adult Patients Presenting With Seizures Andy Jagoda, MD, FACEP Professor of Emergency Medicine Mount Sinai School of Medicine New York, New York

Andy Jagoda, MD Seizure Clinical Policy Frequently seen in the ED Symptom of potentially life threatening disease Associated with potential morbidity and mortality ACEP Seizure Clinical Policy Approach based Revision 2003 – Critical questions; evidence based

Andy Jagoda, MD Seizure Epidemiology in Emergency Medicine 1% of adult ED visits 2% of pediatric ED visits Most common ED etiologies are not epilepsy related: Alcoholism Stroke Trauma CNS infection Metabolic / Toxin Tumor Fever in children 50,000 – 100,000 ED cases of status epilepticus annually 20% mortality

Andy Jagoda, MD Population Based Study of the Epidemiology of Status Epilepticus Most epidemiology studies focus on patients with epilepsy and not on the epidemiology of seizures per se Fewer than half the cases of status identified were managed by a neurologist Over 50% of status cases occurred in patients with no prior history of epilepsy Delorenzo et al. Neurology 1996; 46:

Andy Jagoda, MD ACEP Clinical Policy Identify questions of clinical importance to emergency department management of patients with seizures Analyze the quality of data available related to acute management of patients with seizures Differentiate anectodal experience from practice supported by evidence

Andy Jagoda, MD ACEP Clinical Policy 1.What lab tests are indicated in the otherwise healthy adult patient with a new onset seizure who has returned to a baseline normal neuro status? 2.Which new onset seizure patients who have returned to a normal baseline require neuroimaging in the ED? 3.Which new onset seizure patients who have returned to normal baseline need to be admitted to the hospital and / or started on an AED?

Andy Jagoda, MD ACEP Clinical Policy 4. What are effective phenytoin dosing strategies for preventing sz recurrence in patients who present to the ED with a subtherapeutic serum phenytoin level? 5. What agent(s) should be administered to a patient in status who continues to seize despite a loading dose of a benzodiazepine and a phenytoin? 6. When should an EEG be performed in the ED?
