AB  - We aimed to identify nonconvulsive seizures (NCS) and nonconvulsive status 
      epilepticus (NCSE) in a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). A prospective 
      cohort study on 35 patients who underwent continuous electroencephalographic 
      monitoring in the PICU was done. The patients were evaluated to collect data of 
      their demographics, clinical diagnoses, clinical seizures by 
      electroencephalography, and neuroimaging findings. One case with NCSE and 4 cases 
      with NCS were diagnosed among the 35 patients. The etiology of the patient with 
      NCSE showed antiepileptic drug (AED) withdrawal. The etiology of the patients 
      with NCS included electrical injury, head trauma, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and 
      pneumonia. The findings suggest that younger age, epilepsy, acute structural 
      brain abnormalities, abrupt cessation of AED, and clinically overt seizures 
      before NCSE/NCS are associated with significant risk for NCS/NCSE. In addition, 
      the electrical injury may also be considered as a risk factor for electrographic 
      seizure though such a case has not yet been reported.
