Chance of grandfather surviving pneumonia? he is almost 88. he was just in the hospital for a uti and he went back in after a seizure = new medicine.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
QOL: Question would be how otherwise healthy is your grandfather. Why the seizure? History of seizures? Probably better if history of seizures, since people with history of seizures tend to have them when they are sick. Also better if had a seizure secondary to an antibiotic lowering threshold for seizures...Meropenem, etc. On ventilator?
