Ongoing seizures or status epilepticus may occur in any seizure type and terminology may be confusing (Box 17.3). Generalized convulsive status epilepticus represents a true emergency condition because the ongoing electrical seizure activity is itself injurious to the brain. In late or decompensated status epilepticus, there may be a dissociation between the ongoing electrical seizure activity and motor convulsions [28, 29]. In other types of status epilepticus, such as the nonconvulsive status seen in prolonged absence seizures, the link between prolonged electrical activity and neuronal injury is not established.
