possibly other measures within the framework of nonlinear dynamics and chaos
theory, may assist in an objective evaluation of the efficacy of current and future
AEDs for the treatment of SE. While larger scale studies are contemplated for fur-
ther validation of these results, it appears that this methodology could be clinically
valuable as an independent online and real-time monitoring of the state of the brain
and evaluation of the efficacy of the administered AEDs in SE.
