Complication burden during status epilepticus and long-term mortality

Key Points

• To evaluate the link between complication burden during status epilepticus and long-term mortality outcomes.
• Analyzed patient data discharged alive after status epilepticus
• Identified cardiovascular, coagulative, infectious, and renal complications as factors predicting mortality
• Collected data on in-hospital and six-month mortality rates
• In-hospital mortality linked to complication burden was significant
• Six months mortality showed weak association with complication burden after discharge
• Independent predictors of six-month mortality include cardiovascular, coagulative, infectious, and renal complications
