Treatment of electrical seizures in HIE

[hehady]

In your practice when managing a case of HIE, do you treat
clinical seizures- electrical seizures?

[Stefan Johansson]

The current (national) recommendations is to treat subclinical seizures if they are recurrent (as registr by CFM or EEG).
We usually have infants with suspected seizures or post-asphyxia monitored with CFM, but check regular EEG's - daily until the infant is stable neurologically, and then less frequent until the EEG is normalized or has become stationary.
