Rationale: There is a lack of clinical and epidemiological knowledge about the diagnosis, treatment, and outcome of non-convulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) in developing countries. Mexico had the highest prevalence of epilepsy in Latin America and is urgent to know this information. The aim of the study is describe the electro-clinical findings and outcomes of NCSE in a third-level center in Mexico.<
