The aim was to evaluate an educational video in educating doctors on the key messages and follow-up pathways following a first afebrile seizure presentation. A multidisciplinary expert team developed the video (http://www.pennsw.org.au/families/resources/first-seizure-pack-and-video) based on available evidence and best-practice. It contains a role-play between the parent/child and physician. It addresses: key messages to impart following a first seizure, seizure first aid, safety messages including necessary precautions post-discharge, contents of the First Seizure Pack for families, follow-up pathway and issues for discussion with the paediatrician at a later appointment.
