Factors Associated with Refractory Status Epilepticus Termination Following Ketamine Initiation: A Multivariable Analysis Model.

Our cohort is a large observational study showing a high success rate of permanent cessation of SE after the addition of ketamine. Using multivariable analysis, we demonstrate a significant association with seizure cessation in patients with prior history of epilepsy and those with prolonged latency to ketamine initiation. Furthermore, we describe the impact of fluid volume overload as an anticipated complication with ketamine use.
