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

Abstract

The complication burden is linked to in-hospital mortality but only weakly to 6 months mortality in patients discharged alive. Cardiovascular, coagulative, infectious and renal complications are independent predictors of all-cause mortality at six months.
