History was obtained from chart and parents. This is a 7yo male that presents today after a witnessed seizure. He was born at 24wks gestation with a twin. He was found to have IVH at birth that caused hydrocephalus. A Shunt was placed at 1-2months of age. He has had no difficulties with his shunt placement, but does have a history of developmental delay. Today the family brought the patient into a follow up appointment. He received a flu shot and as they were leaving started to act abnormal. He developed left gaze preference and the turned his head to the left. He became very tense and his arms flexed bilaterally. Family reports small convulsions in all extremities. This event lasted ~20 minutes total. He was brought to the ED and given Diastat. The episode resolved but the pt subsequently was intubated. No recent illness or fever. Family denies nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or fever. No change in cognitive status. No family history of seizures. Possible seizure 2 years ago reported by his teacher. He suddenly leaned back and became tense/stiff for several seconds. Father brought him to the hospital at that time but was sent home as he had returned to normal. No fevers or other abnormalities noted at that time. Patient is a 7 year old with history of prematurity (24 weeks) hydrocephalus and VP shunt admitted to the PICU after seizure. He had a seizure with head deviation to left and generalized tonic-clonic activity lasting >20 minutes at Clinic after receiving a flu vaccine at his regular clinic visit. He initially needed oxygen support and bag-mask ventilation at the scene for apnea and was subsequently intubated. He received Diastat at the scene and was loaded with 20mg/kg of Keppra on arrival. He was stable in the PICU and was able to be extubated overnight on day of admission. He was transferred to the floor on 12/10 and continued to do well. He had no further seizure activity. A shunt series was performed and was normal. Head CT unchanged from previous MRI.  At time of discharge he was stable on room air, eating, drinking and behaving normally.
