Petit mal status
is a heterogeneous clinical syndrome of nonconvulsive status epilepticus. The EEG accompaniment is likewise heterogeneous.

lethargy
, slowness, and decreased mental function, (b) abnormal generalized continuous or nearly continuous epileptiform EEG activity, and (c) absence of gross tonic-clonic activity or highly lateralized clonic activity. These criteria do not distinguish petit mal status from complex partial status. Clinical evidence for abruptness of recovery and EEG evidence for localization are required for this distinction, an important factor in therapeutic decisions.
