Race against time: new ambulance protocol aims to stop Kids' seizures faster

NCT ID NCT05121324

Summary

This study aims to improve how paramedics treat children having seizures in ambulances. It tests if using simple, age-based doses of a common seizure-stopping medication (midazolam), given as a shot or nasal spray, works better and is as safe as the current method that requires complex calculations. The goal is to help more children arrive at the hospital seizure-free by making treatment faster and simpler for emergency crews.
