Authors studied two different groups of patients. One of them with febrile seizures and the other febrile seizures associated to epilepsy, in order to find risk factors for the presentation of this one. They conclude that epilepsy has a presentation rate of 9,6% in patients with previous febrile seizures, having the highest risk when they show previous familial seizures, neonatal pathology and altered EEG after the first febrile convulsion. They study the role of phenobarbital taken after febrile seizures, as prophylaxis. No effect was observed in the prevention of following epilepsy. |
