Good outcome is identified as a Glasgow outcome scale of 4 or 5. Poor outcome is identified as a Glasgow outcome scale of 1, 2, or 3.

*

One patient’s outcome upon discharge was unknown.

P ≤ 0.05.

P ≤ 0.01.

BIPD, bilateral independent periodic discharge; GPD, generalized periodic discharge; GRDA, generalized rhythmic delta activity; LPD, lateralized periodic discharge; LRDA, lateralized rhythmic delta activity; NORSE, new-onset refractory status epilepticus.
