Kwak et al.
Seizure, 2017
Interestingly, a meta analysis showed that iron deficiency anemia is significantly associated with febrile seizures (OR, 1.98; 95% CI, 1.26-3.13; P=0.003). You still don't need to send ion levels/ferritin in the ED at this point though. Treatment doesn't necessarily reduce the risk of recurrence.
