Background: Current guidelines recommend against neurodiagnostic testing for the evaluation of simple febrile seizures.Objectives: (1) Assess overall and institutional rates of neurodiagnostic testing and(2) establish achievable benchmarks of care (ABCs) for children evaluated for simple febrile seizures at children's hospitals. Design, Setting, and Participants: Cross-sectional study of children 6 months to 5 years evaluated in the emergency department (ED) 2016-2019 with simple febrile seizures at 38 children's hospitals in Pediatric Health Information System database.We excluded children with epilepsy, complex febrile seizures, complex chronic conditions, and intensive care.Outcome Measures: Proportions of children who received neuroimaging, electroencephalogram (EEG), or lumbar puncture (LP) and rates of hospitalization for study cohort and individual hospitals. Hospital-specific outcomes were adjusted for patient demographics and severity of illness. We utilized hospital-specific values for each measure to calculate ABCs.Results: We identified 51,015 encounters. Among the study cohort 821 (1.6%) children had neuroimaging, 554 (1.1%) EEG, 314 (0.6%) LP, and 2023 (4.0%) were hospitalized. Neurodiagnostic testing rates varied across hospitals: neuroimaging 0.4%-6.7%, EEG 0%-8.2%, LP 0%-12.7% in patients <1-year old and 0%-3.1% in patients ≥1 year. Hospitalization rate ranged from 0%-14.5%. Measured outcomes were higher among hospitalized versus ED-only patients: neuroimaging 15.3% versus 1.0%, EEG% 24.7 versus 0.1% (p < .001). Calculated ABCs were 0.6% for neuroimaging, 0.1% EEG, 0% LP, and 1.0% hospitalization.Conclusions: Rates of neurodiagnostic testing and hospitalization for simple febrile seizures were low but varied across hospitals. Calculated ABCs were 0%-1% for all measures, demonstrating that adherence to current guidelines is attainable.
