Abstract

The article presents results of an analysis of the catamnesis of 286 child ren aged 3 who had neonatal seizures. It is shown that all patients can be divided into 3 groups according to the type of further course of the disease and outcomes relative to the formation of epilepsy and neurological defi cit at the age of 3. The fi rst group consisted of patients without seizures up to 3 years of age and a slight neurologic defi cit (61 %). The second group consisted of patients with the formation of epilepsy, in who medical remission was achieved, and moderate neurologic defi cit (16 %). The third group consisted of patients with the formation of epilepsy and treatment-resistant epileptic encephalopathies and severe neurologic defi cit (23 %). Factors aff ecting the prognosis of neonatal seizures are revealed.
