Reducing Time to Electroencephalography in Pediatric Convulsive Status Epilepticus: A Quality Improvement Initiative

Pediatric convulsive status epilepticus (CSE) is a neurological emergency utilizing electroencephalography (EEG) to guide therapeutic interventions. Guidelines recommend EEG initiation within one hour of seizure onset, but logistic and structural barriers often lead to significant delays. We aimed to reduce the time to EEG in pediatric CSE.
