Needs good managemnt: Infants have simple nervous systems & seizures are often partial & complex compared to an adult, where the same event may generalize.The meningitis may have left an injured area that triggered the event & speculation about the future is difficult.Babies have a greater ability to re-wire past injured areas than adults so the future is not necessarily bleak.Good followup can assure the best outcome.
