The clinical usefulness of 5 risk factors (delayed development before the onset of seizures, abnormal EEG, symptomatic etiology, abnormal past histories, nonbrief symmetric generalized tonic and/or clonic convulsions) used to indicate long-term prognosis was investigated in 295 children who had convulsive disorders in the first year of life. All patients were followed up to the age of 6 years or older. Patients without any of these risk factors showed mentally and physically normal development, and 89% became seizure-free. However, only 10% or less of the high-risk group with 3 or more of these factors became mentally and physically normal. The score of these 5 factors was significantly related to the long-term prognosis and was assumed to be a valuable index to prognosis in the early stages.
