Multivariate analysis revealed that acute symptomatic NCSE was an independent predictor of unfavorable outcome (odds ratio 14.20, 95% confidence interval 1.74\u2013116.17, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.013) after correction for age, Hunt-Hess grade, Fisher grade, and delayed cerebral ischemia. Subgroup analysis showed a significant association of all seizures\/NCSE with higher Fisher grade (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001 for acute symptomatic seizures\/NCSE, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.031 for remote symptomatic seizures). However, although acute seizures\/NCSE (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.750 and 0.060 for acute seizures\/NCSE respectively) were not associated with unfavorable outcome in patients with a high Hunt-Hess grade, they were significantly associated with unfavorable outcome in patients with a low Hunt-Hess grade (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.019 and <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001 for acute seizures\/NCSE, respectively).<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Acute symptomatic NCSE independently predicts unfavorable outcome after aSAH. Seizures and NCSE are associated with unfavorable outcome, particularly in patients with a low Hunt-Hess grade. We propose that NCSE and the ictal or postictal reduction of Glasgow Coma Scale may hamper close clinical evaluation for signs of delayed cerebral ischemia, and thus possibly leading to delayed diagnosis and therapy thereof in patients with a low Hunt-Hess grade.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s12028-022-01489-0","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,4,12]],"date-time":"2022-04-12T00:02:32Z","timestamp":1649721752000},"page":"751-759","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":28,"title":["Impact of Seizures and Status Epilepticus on Outcome in Patients with Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"36","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5386-0811","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Stefan Yu","family":"B\u00f6gli","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sophie","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Natalia","family":"Romaguera","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Valerie","family":"Sch\u00fctz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Omar","family":"Rafi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marco","family":"Gilone","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Emanuela","family":"Keller","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lukas L.","family":"Imbach","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Giovanna","family":"Brandi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,4,12]]},"reference":[{"issue":"4","key":"1489_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"671","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1528-1167.2009.02285.x","volume":"51","author":"E Beghi","year":"2010","unstructured":"Beghi E, Carpio A, Forsgren L, et al.
