Sumario:OBJECTIVE: This study was undertaken to develop consensus‐based recommendations for the management of adult and pediatric patients with new onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE)/febrile infection‐related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES) based on best evidence and experience. METHODS: The Delphi methodology was followed. A facilitator group of nine experts was established, who defined the scope, users, and suggestions for recommendations. Following a review of the current literature, recommendation statements concerning diagnosis, treatment, and research directions were generated, which were then rated on a scale of 1 (strongly disagree) to 9 (strongly agree) by a panel of 48 experts in the field. Consensus that a statement was appropriate was reached if the median score was ≥7 and inappropriate if the median score was ≤3. The analysis of evidence was mapped to the results of each statement included in the Delphi survey. RESULTS: Overall, 85 recommendation statements achieved consensus. The recommendations are divided into five sections: (1) disease characteristics; (2) diagnostic testing and sampling; (3) acute treatment; (4) treatment in the postacute phase; and (5) research, registries, and future directions in NORSE/FIRES. The detailed results and discussion of all 85 statements are outlined herein. A corresponding summary of findings and practical flowsheets are presented in a companion article. SIGNIFICANCE: This detailed analysis offers insight into the supporting evidence and the current gaps in the literature that are associated with expert consensus statements related to NORSE/FIRES. The recommendations generated by this consensus can be used as a guide for the diagnosis, evaluation, and management of patients with NORSE/FIRES, and for planning of future research.
