Prognosis of post-stroke status epilepticus: effects of time difference between the two events

ConclusionsThe timing of SE after stroke is associated with different consequences: mortality was higher when SE occurred within the first 72 hours after stroke and this risk persisted at follow-up, whereas risk of functional decline was higher when SE occurred during the first 3 months. Other factors such as the mSTESS score and SE duration were associated with outcome at both discharge and long-term follow-up.
