You should categorize the seizure patient as a high-priority transport if which of these occurs?

A seizure patient should be categorized as high-priority for transport particularly if the seizure lasts longer than one minute. This duration indicates a more severe condition, known as status epilepticus, which can lead to significant morbidity and mortality if not treated promptly. Prolonged seizures can result in potential complications such as respiratory failure, brain injury due to prolonged hypoxia, or increased risk of subsequent seizures.

While being pregnant, postictal status, or regaining consciousness are important factors to consider in overall assessment and management of the seizure patient, they do not inherently indicate an urgent need for high-priority transport. Pregnancy can complicate the situation, but the immediate clinical priority in terms of urgency relates to the duration of the seizure and the associated risks. Thus, a seizure lasting longer than one minute clearly suggests a higher level of concern that warrants immediate medical intervention.
