The ARC recently revised the policy on Status Epilepticus in Rodents. Changes include use of remote monitoring during the acute phase of SE so long as a rapid response can be initiated and documentation of monitoring checks at the room level via a log or cage-side using DLAM’s pink “Study Related Care / Information” cards.
We encourage you to review and discuss this policy with your research team if it is relevant to your laboratory. All ARC policies are available on the ARC website.
Please do not hesitate to contact us at 310-206-6308 or arc@research.ucla.edu if you have any questions.
