A self-completed questionnaire study of attitudes and perceptions of paramedic and prehospital practitioners towards acute seizure care in Northern Ireland.
CONCLUSIONS: We identified that the paramedic workforce feels a reasonable to high level of confidence in the management of acute seizures. However, there are areas where they experience less confidence including making nonconveyance decisions and the identification of nontonic-clonic seizure subtypes.
