Prospective observational cohort study of patients with CSE lasting ≥5 minutes
Evaluated treatment processes and outcomes from February 2016 to July 2018
Used univariate statistics for data analysis.
Personalized seizure action plans correlated with shorter seizure duration and faster administration of antiseizure medication.
Benzodiazepine-resistant patients showed lower adherence to treatment protocols and longer times to first-line therapy.
Implementation of seizure action plans was associated with a reduced intubation rate.

Stredny et al. (2025) studied this question.
