088 The walton seizure pathway – experience to date and outcomes

We designed a seizure management pathway for AE 2. guidance on management of patients requiring admission, status epilepticus and obtaining inpatient advice or consultation if needed; 3. a simple pathway for all seizure patients to be referred quickly to WCFT after discharge from AE 4. to reduce repeat AE 5. clear patient information for all patients discharged from AE the proportion of patients seen in a neurology clinic after a seizure related admission increased from 34% to 42% and the proportion of seizure patients admitted to local hospitals who were not under neurology follow up fell from 58% to 48%. However, the referral rate after admission of new (or not under review) seizure patients remains too low at 21%. There has been no effect yet on re-admission or A&E re-attendance rates of patients after seizure admissions.
