Prolonged Treatment for Acute Symptomatic Refractory Status Epilepticus
Neurol 61:398-401, Sahin,M.,et al, 2003
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
High-dose suppressive therapy (HDST) is used to treat refractory status epilepticus (RSE). Prolonged therapy is required in some cases, and prognosis is important in making therapeutic decisions. The authors therefore studied the long-term outcome in previously normal children who survived prolonged HDST for acute symptomatic RSE. All have intractable epilepsy, and none returned to baseline.
