Abstract
|
|
|
|
Neonatal seizures are the most common and distinctive clinical sign of prenatal and/or neonatal brain disorders. Newborn infants with seizures are at risk of mortality and survivors at risk for neurologic impairment, developmental delay, and subsequent epilepsy. Fifteen reports on neonatal seizures in Korea from 1983 to 2009 were analyzed. A total of 731 neonatal seizure cases were reported. Day of seizure onset, etiology, type of seizures, electroencephalogram findings, and outcomes were analyzed. It is necessary to establish a basic report for a future nationwide study of neonatal seizures.
