Abstract:
Current knowledge about the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of neonatal seizures is reviewed. The pitfalls in establishing the diagnosis are emphasized and the usefulness of new electrodiagnostic techniques is discussed. A protocol for treating neonatal seizures is suggested. Finally, the clinical and electroencephalographic variables which are relevant in determining neurologic outcome are discussed.
