  "abstract": "Status epilepticus is a serious neurological emergency requiring swift recognition and treatment. Presentations with prominent motor features are easily recognised but it can be challenging to diagnose those with subtle or no motor features. Electroencephalogram (EEG) remains indispensable in diagnosing, classifying, monitoring and prognosticating of status epilepticus. There are several separate classification systems for seizures, epilepsy and status epilepticus, incorporating clinical features, causes and EEG correlates. This review focuses on using EEG in status epilepticus and provides a practical approach to diagnosis and classification aligning with the current International League Against Epilepsy and American Clinical Neurophysiology Society definitions.",
