Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Although etiology is considered central to outcomes in status epilepticus (SE), previous studies often lacked standardized classification and adjustment for confounders, particularly withdrawal of life-sustaining treatment (WLST). This study examined the association between SE etiology, mortality, and neurologic recovery using the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) classification while accounting for confounders and WLST. METHODS: This 2-center observational study included adults (≥18 years) with SE treated at the University Hospitals of Basel and Geneva fr
