Making SENSE of what we do - How to bring evidence to clinical practice.

Status epilepticus is a frequent neurological emergency. Several audits and registries have enhanced our knowledge regarding patient demography, etiology, treatment, and outcome. Several large registries have also contributed significantly to current treatment guidelines that emphasize the importance of instant and effective treatment onset. Large registries also document that deviation from these treatment guidelines is not the exception but the rule. Therefore, careful analysis of the treatment pathways as well as balanced intervention efforts are necessary to overcome the gap between knowledge and action. This paper was presented at the 8th London-Innsbruck Colloquium on Status Epilepticus and Acute Seizures held in September 2022.
