The mission of the NORSE Institute is to increase awareness of NORSE, be a resource for families, clinicians, and researchers - visit norseinstitute.org
NORSE: Clinical presentation wherein those without epilepsy have new onset refractory status epilepticus (long seizures or seizures without return to baseline not responsive to 1st or 2nd-line treatments) without clear metabolic/toxic/structural cause (DOI: 10.1111/epi.14016)
Please note and join this important conference. NORSE (new onset refractory status epilepticus) @NORSE_Institute is such an important condition in the ICU with a massive impact on patients and their loved ones. A lot more work to be done to understand, support, and work towards a cure.

For #NORSE & #FIRES patients, please find clinical and family resources at norseinstitute.org as well as the NORSE biorepository @YaleNeuroICU which will yield insights that our desperately patients need (no local IRB needed). @MGHNeuroICU we find these resources invaluable!
