Introduction
Febrile seizures (FS) are the most
common type of seizure in
childhood
25-35% : complex FS
65-75% : simple FS
3
Introduction
no corelation EEG
abnormality to reccurence of
FS or development of
epilepsy
4
Objective
To evaluate possible role of EEG in predicting
recurrence of FS in children after a first FS, during
at least three years of follow up
5
Methods
• Retrospective study, consecutive
Study design sampling
7
Methods
• FS : seizures occurs in body
temperature ≥ 38o C, no infection
of CNS, no metabolic
disturbance or electrolyte
imbalance
• Simple FS : generalized, < 15
mins, not recurrent within 24 h
Definition • Complex FS : focal or repetitive
within 24 h or >15 min
• Recurrent FS: seizure occurring
in new episode of fever, already
experienced at least one
previous FS
• Epilepsy : 2 or more unprovoked
seizures occuring > 24h apart
8
Methods
• EEG obtained without
pharmacological sedation
• Included wake and sleep stages
• Interpreted by pediatric neurologist
Procedure and neurophysiologist
• Classified in three groups: (1) normal
(2) abnormal : focal or generalized
slow activity or epileptiform
discharges (3) PPMD pattern

Methods
• Main outcome: recurrence of
outcome febrile seizures (FS) in children
with a first FS

Discussion
PPMD is paroxysmal discharge consisting
In 1964, Gibbs and generalized or nearly generalized high
Gibbs voltage 3-4 /sec wave with poorly
developed spike occured in drowsiness

Discussion
16
Limitation
•Retrospective study
•sort duration of follow up
• various timing of EEG
17
Conclusion
EEG may have a role in predicting FS recurrence in
children after first FS
The practice of EEG examination after first FS needs
better clarification with prospective studies

Critical Appraisal
19
Validity
1. Was the defined representative sample of patients assembled
at the common point (usually early) in the course of their
disease?
• Yes
• Patient recruited with retrospective cohort, with consecutive
sampling , child with a first febrile seizure who underwent
EEG from Jan 2007 – Jan 2013
20
Validity
3. Were outcome criteria either objective or applied in a ‘blind’
fashion?
• it isn’t clearly stated in journal that outcome criteria applied
in a ‘blind’ fashion
21
Importance
How likely are the outcomes over time?
22
Importance
23
Applicability
Is my patient so different to those in the study that the
results cannot apply?
• No, our patient has same characteristic with the
population study
