Notes

  • OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to assess the value of prehospital measurement of lactate level in blood for diagnosis of seizures in cases of transient loss of consciousness.METHODS: Between March 2018 and September 2019, prehospital lactate was measured with a point-of-care device by the emergency medical services in an area serving a population of 900 000. A total of 383 cases of transient loss of consciousness were identified and categorized as tonic-clonic seizure (TCS), other seizure, syncope, or other cause, according to the final diagnosis in the electronic medical records system. Receiver operating characteristic curve analyses were used to identify the optimal lactate cut-off.RESULTS: A total of 383 cases were included (135 TCS, 42 other seizure, 163 syncope, and 43 other causes). The median lactate level in TCS was 7.0 mmol/L, compared to a median of 2.0 mmol/L in all other cases (P < .001). The area under the curve (AUC) of TCS vs nonepileptic causes was 0.87 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.83-0.91). The optimal cut-off (Youden index, 67.8%) was 4.75 mmol/L, with 79% sensitivity (95% CI 71-85) and 89% specificity (95% CI 85-93) for TCS.SIGNIFICANCE: Prehospital lactate can be a valuable tool for identifying seizures in transient loss of consciousness. For acceptable specificity, a higher cut-off than that previously demonstrated for hospital-based measurements must be used when values obtained close to the time of the event are interpreted.
