Paediatric seizures are common, time-critical events and they're something most of us will deal with, whether that's pre-hospital, in the emergency department, or on the ward. They make up around 1–2% of ED attendances, and about 1 in 20 children will have a seizure at some point. Most seizures self-terminate, but the longer they go on the harder they are to stop, and the higher the risk of harm. In paediatric seizures, time really matters. In this episode we take a step-by-step look at how to assess and manage a child who's seizing. We start with the fundamentals; how seizures are defined and classified, what status epilepticus actually means in practice, and why recognising it early makes such a difference. We then dig into the physiology behind seizures, exploring why early benzodiazepines work well and why delayed treatment often doesn't. Understanding what's happening at a receptor level helps make sense of when to escalate treatment and why different drugs work at different stages of a prolonged seizure. Pharmacology is a big part of this episode. We talk through first- and second-line anti-seizure medications, routes of administration, and how effective they really are. We cover the EcLiPSE and ConSEPT trials comparing levetiracetam and phenytoin, and look at newer evidence from the Ket-Mid study and what that might mean for managing refractory status and thinking about RSI. We also work through the approach to cases, pre-hospital management and in-hospital care aligned with UK and European recommendations. There's a clear focus on febrile seizures too, separating simple from complex presentations and helping you decide who needs investigating, admitting, or reassuring and discharging. As ever, the aim is to turn guidelines and evidence into something usable on the shop floor. Paediatric seizures are stressful, but with a structured approach, early treatment, and good airway management, they're absolutely manageable and we can make a real difference on outcomes. Once again we'd love to hear any thoughts or feedback either on the website or via X @TheResusRoom! Simon, Rob & James

This episode features  Jo-Anne J. Kelly  (Palliative Care South East, Narre Warren, VIC, Australia (Palliative Care South East, Narre Warren, VIC, Australia) and Dr Karen Aisling Griffin (Palliative Care South East, Narre Warren, VIC, Australia, Peninsula Health, Frankston, VIC, Australia)   What is already known about this topic? Phenobarbital loading in the adult palliative cohort for refractory symptom management has been used for many years. However, there is little evidence, nor a guideline for palliative sedation for children at home.   What does this paper add? An initial loading dose of phenobarbital may provide enhanced and quicker relief of refractory symptoms in the paediatric palliative care cohort receiving home-based terminal care.   Implications for practice, theory, or policy? Further research is required to determine the efficacy of, and guidelines for administration of, a loading dose of phenobarbital for paediatric palliative care patients in the terminal phase, presenting with intractable symptoms.   Full paper available from:     https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/02692163251395457   If you would like to record a podcast about your published (or accepted) Palliative Medicine paper, please contact Dr Amara Nwosu:  a.nwosu@lancaster.ac.uk
