Detailed description

The investigators retrospectively analyzed all patients who were admitted to the Department of Neurology, University Hospital Marburg, Germany, between 2013 and 2023 with a diagnosis of status epilepticus, who received additional treatment of SE with STP. They were able to identify 25 patients who received STP as add on therapy. All these patients suffered from RSE or SRSE. Since there was no SOP or treatment algorithm available, they have listed the individual treatment regimens in Table 2. 5 of these patients were previously published in a case series (Strzelczyk et al. 2015). Treatment success was defined as continuous interruption of the SE. Descriptive statistics are reported as absolute numbers and percentages, mean ± standard deviation (SD) or median ± median absolute deviation. The study was approved by the local IRB.
