Abstract		Neonatal convulsions occur frequently and are the most distinctive sign of neurological disease or disturbance of the central nervous system. Seizure types in neonates are different compared to those observed in older children. The great majority of neonatal seizures are symptomatic, perinatal hypoxia being the most important cause. Treatment of neonatal convulsions depends on the cause; between antieptic drugs, Phenobarbital is the drug of choice. The outcome is, to a large extent, dependent on the cause of the convulsions. Mortality has decreased in recent years, but the incidence of neurological sequelae is still relatively high.
Summary		Neotanalni krči so pogost in najizrazitejši znak nevrološke bolezni ali motenega delovanja osrednjega živčevja. Klinične oblike krčev se razlikujejo od oblik, ki soopisane pri starejših otrocih. Krči so pri novorojenčkih večinoma simptomatski, najpogostejši vzrok zanje je perinatalna hipoksija. Ukrepanje pri neonatalnih krčih je v prvi vrsti vzročno, od zdravil proti krčem pa se najbolj uporablja fenobarbiton. izid je v veliki meri odvisen od etiologije. Čeprav je smrtnost v upadanju, pa je delež otrok z nevrološkimi posledicami relativno visok.
