A retrospective multicentric study on the effectiveness of intravenous brivaracetam in seizure clusters: Data from the Italian experience.

Seizure clusters (SC) are episodes of consecutive seizures occurring in a short while, with the patient returning to normal state in the inter-ictal period. Despite several efforts, a consensus to define SC among clinicians and researchers has not yet been reached. Consequently, several definitions of SC have been adopted, namely 3 or more seizures in 24 hours, 2 or more seizures in 24 hours and 2 or more seizures in 6 hours [1].
