TI  - Successful ECT treatment for medically refractory nonconvulsive status 
      epilepticus in pediatric patient.

AB  - Status epilepticus is a life threatening condition with a high mortality rate in 
      spite of aggressive treatment. There is little consensus on third and fourth line 
      approaches in refractory cases. While electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) has been 
      employed successfully as a treatment for refractory epilepsy and status 
      epilepticus (SE) after exhausting conventional therapy, its use for pediatric 
      patients is limited. We describe a 7-year-old pediatric case in which ECT was 
      used successfully to treat medically refractory nonconvulsive status epilepticus 
      (NCSE) without complete withdrawal of antiepileptic drugs (AED).
