Pediatric Seizure Study

By the age of 15, 4 to 8 percent of all children in the United States will experience prolonged seizures.

Our partnership of 14 children’s hospitals and universities across the country conducted a study to learn which of two commonly prescribed seizure medicines is best for treating seizures in children in the emergency department (ED).

From 2008 to March of 2012, a total of 310 patients were enrolled in the study to help answer this question. You can learn more about these results of our study by exploring this web site:

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you the community for your invaluable contribution through your understanding, feedback, questions and comments.
