ER and doctors’ preparedness to manage status epilepticus: a multi-institutional survey from the Gaza Strip
The survey revealed significant defects in Palestinian ER doctors' knowledge and beliefs towards SE. Several hospitals also demonstrated a critical lack of resources to manage this condition appropriately. This should be addressed by the local health authorities to avoid potentially preventable SE-related mortality and morbidity.
