PediDOSE Study Disclosure

When paramedics treat active seizures, one-third of children arrive at the hospital still seizing. As part of the Pediatric Dose Optimization for Seizures in Emergency Medical Services (PediDOSE) study, Drs. Lorin Browne and Ben Weston of the 91ɫƵ are trying to improve these outcomes by equipping paramedics to quickly give the right anti-seizure medication dose. Because it is a time-sensitive condition, when Milwaukee County EMS transports a child, they will be enrolled before parent/guardian permission can be sought.
