About this study
Convulsive and Non Convulsive Status Epilepticus (SE) and Pseudo Status Epilepticus prospective registry.
Data collection using a standardized form : demographic data and data related to the SE, including circumstances of onset, dates and times of onset and of seizure control, on-scene clinical findings, clinical features of the seizures, pre-hospital and hospital care providers, timing of antiepileptic and supportive treatments, results of etiological investigations, cause of SE, type and dosage of antiepileptic drugs. Dates and times of EEG monitoring, EEG results. Outcomes including vital status and Glasgow Outcome Scale score at ICU and hospital discharge, day-90 and 1-year after SE and determined based on data in the ICU and/or neurologist charts and/or patients phone interview.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Status Epilepticus | Convulsive and Non-Convulsive Status Epilepticus ; and Pseudo Status Epilepticus |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Favorable outcome
A favorable outcome is defined by a Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) of 5. The Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) will be determined according to patients charts review and/or general practitioner interview conducted by an independent assessor. The GOS score : [1: Death, 2: Persistent vegetative state, 3: Severe disability, 4: Moderate disability, 5 : Low disability]
Measured: 1 year
Secondary outcomes (8)

The GOS score : [1: Death, 2: Persistent vegetative state, 3: Severe disability, 4: Moderate disability, 5 : Low disability]

total seizure duration in minutes
Measured: 72 hours

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Status Epilepticus, run by Ictal Group at 20 sites in France.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Oct 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 20 sites in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact stephane LEGRIEL, MD (+33139639717, slegriel@ch-versailles.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Favorable outcome (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03457831, which also lists 5 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Oct 2020.
