ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
We performed this study to investigate the clinical features of febrile seizure (FS) and to identify prognostic factors of recurrence of FS on Jeju Island, South Korea.METHODS:
A hospital-based retrospective study was performed in 307 children with FS whose first episode developed between July 2005 and June 2013 seen at the Pediatric Department of Jeju National University Hospital.RESULTS:
307 children (189 boys and 118 girls) were enrolled in this study. Based on first FS semiology, 97.1% (298/307) of cases manifested as generalized seizure and 2.9% of cases showed focal seizure. Moreover, 23.5% (72/307) of cases had complex FS as the first FS. The average age at the first FS was 18.4 months. A family history of FS or epilepsy was found in 30.6% and 5.2% of patients, respectively. Recurrence occurred in 67.6% of patients; among them, 93.7% had their first recurrence within 1 year. Multivariate analysis identified the following factors as significant predictors of recurrence of FS early onset of FS (< or =15 months of age) and a family history of FS.CONCLUSIONS:
We identified the following risk factors for recurrence of FS early onset of FS (< or =15 months of age) and a family history of FS.
