摘要：

We report the medication management of electroencephalographic status epilepticus with subtle clinical manifestations in a young infant while simultaneously recording electroencephalographic activity and cerebral regional oxygen saturation (rSO(2)) index using near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). We found that antiepileptic drugs equally influence the frequency of rSO(2) index fluctuations and electroencephalographic seizures. The purpose of this report is to illustrate the use of NIRS in the medication management of an infant with status epilepticus and subtle or no clinical manifestations; and to suggest that if future studies confirm our finding, NIRS may be reliably used to gauge the effects of antiepileptic medications in similar patients.
