Abstract

Objectives: This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (prognosis). The objectives are as follows:. Primary objectives To identify which prognostic factors predict whether individuals will go on to have further unprovoked seizures and the development of epilepsy at any subsequent time point following a single unprovoked seizure (or cluster of epileptic seizures within a 24-hour period, or a first episode of status epilepticus), of any seizure type. Investigation of sources of heterogeneity between studies We anticipate that there will be heterogeneity between studies, particularly in studies that have focused on adults compared to the paediatric population,and studies that have a combination of paediatric and adult populations.
