Neonatal seizures are a type of seizure that occurs in newborns, typically within the first 28 days of life. These seizures can be symptomatic of a variety of underlying conditions such as hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, intracranial hemorrhage, metabolic disturbances, or congenital infections. The management of neonatal seizures often necessitates the use of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs).
