- W2047696539 abstract "Introduction A growing population of residents in long-term care facilities (LTCF) is likely to present with status epilepticus (SE), which requires rapid treatment to avoid permanent neuronal damage, associated morbidity, and mortality. The treatment of choice for SE is an intravenous benzodiazepine; however, this is not feasible in most LTCFs because of the training level of the personnel and the risk of respiratory depression. Transport to acute care facilities is often delayed and, in addition, many LTCF residents have “do not hospitalize” orders. As an alternative to an intravenous benzodiazepine, rectal delivery of diazepam has been shown to be effective in stopping prolonged seizures and is more easily accomplished in the LTCF setting. Methods The Badger Prairie Health Care Center (BPHCC), a 132-bed LTCF in Verona, WI, developed a protocol for SE that uses a rectal diazepam gel preparation (Diastat®) when intravenous access is unavailable. The protocol provides for initiation of long-term anticonvulsant therapy as a follow-up to the acute treatment of SE. Results BPHCC staff successfully employed the protocol eight times from August 1999 to November 2000; this article describes the protocol and three representative cases.
