At the 10-year assessment,only 4 of 102 measures of academic progress, intelligence,and behavior differed significantly between the entire group of children with febrile convulsions and the group without febrile convulsions-no more than would be expected by chance.similar results were found when children with simple febrile convulsions and those with complex febrile convulsions were analyzed separately.The children with recurrent episodes of febrile convulsions had outcomes similar to those of the children with only one episode each.Special schooling was required for more children who had febrile convulsions in the first year of life than for those who had had them later in life(5 of 67,or 7.5 percent,vs.4 of 265,or 1.5 percent;P=0.02),but these numbers were small.children who had febrile convulsions performed as well as other children in terms of their academic progress,intellect,and behavior at 10 years of age. |
