• Subjects who have been receiving human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) protease inhibitors or HIV reverse transcriptase inhibitors.

• Subjects with current hypoglycemia (glucose <60 milligram per deciliter [mg/dL]) upon presentation at the hospital or healthcare setting.

• Subjects with severe cerebral anoxia (except cerebral palsy), in the judgment of the healthcare provider.

• Subjects have used an investigational product or been enrolled in a clinical study (including vaccine studies) that, in the investigator's opinion, may impact this Shire-sponsored study.

• Subjects has received antiseizure medication prior to arrival in the healthcare setting.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Percentage of Participants With Response Rate	Response rate was defined as the percentage of participants with therapeutic success. Therapeutic success was defined as the cessation of visible seizure activity within 10 minutes with a sustained absence of visible seizure activity for 30 minutes following a single dose of MHOS/SHP615 without the need for additional rescue medication.	From start of study drug administration up to 30 minutes post-dose
Secondary	Percentage of Participants Who Had Sustained Absence of Seizure Activity for at Least 1, 4 and 6 Hours	Percentage of participants whose seizure event stopped within 10 minutes of single dose administration of SHP615 and who had sustained absence of seizure activity for at least 1, 4, and 6 hours were reported.	From start of study drug administration up to 1, 4 and 6 hours post-dose
Secondary	Number of Participants With Time to Resolution of Seizures (Convulsions)	Time to resolution of seizures (convulsions) was calculated as time from IP administration to the end of the initial seizure or administration of rescue anti-convulsant medication, whichever occurs first. Initial seizure referred to the seizure that triggered the use of the IP. Number of participants with time to resolution of seizures (convulsions) from the administration of SHP615 were reported.	From start of study drug administration up to follow-up (Day 8)
Secondary	Number of Participants With Time to Recovery of Consciousness	Time to recovery of consciousness (in minutes) was calculated only for participants who lost consciousness pre-dose at time from investigational product administration to recovery of consciousness post-dose or administration of rescue anticonvulsant medication, whichever occurs first. Number of participants with time to recovery of consciousness were reported.	From start of study drug administration up to follow-up (Day 8)
Secondary	Percentage of Participants Who Required Additional Anticonvulsant Medication for Ongoing Status Epilepticus (SE)	Percentage of participants who required additional anticonvulsant medication for ongoing SE, 10 minutes after a single dose of SHP615 were reported.	10 minutes post-dose
Secondary	Percentage of Participants Who Failed to Respond to the Treatment With SHP615	Treatment failure/non-responder was defined as participants with continuing seizure activity and/or the need for any additional rescue medication according to the participating healthcare setting protocol or guideline, for 10 mins or more after a single dose of the IP.	10 minutes post-dose
Secondary	Concentration of SHP615 in Plasma at 10 Minutes (C10)	Concentration of SHP615 in plasma at 10 minutes were reported.	10 minutes post-dose
Secondary	Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of SHP615	Cmax of SHP615 in plasma were reported.	1, 3, 6 hours post-dose
Secondary	Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to 10 Minutes (AUC0-10) of SHP615 in Plasma	AUC0-10 of SHP615 in plasma were reported. Here "min ng/mL" was minutes nanogram per milliliter.	Pre-dose, 10 minutes post-dose
Secondary	Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to 60 Minutes (AUC0-60) of SHP615 in Plasma	AUC0-60 of SHP615 in plasma were reported.	Pre-dose, 60 minutes post-dose
Secondary	Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to 180 Minutes (AUC0-180) of SHP615 in Plasma	AUC0-180 of SHP615 in plasma were reported.	Pre-dose, 180 minutes post-dose
Secondary	Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to Infinity (AUC0-inf) of SHP615 in Plasma	AUC(0-infinity) of SHP615 in plasma were reported.	Pre-dose, 1, 3, and 6 hours post-dose
Secondary	Time at Maximum Concentration (Tmax) of SHP615 in Plasma	Tmax of SHP615 in plasma were reported.	1, 3, and 6 hours post-dose
Secondary	Elimination Half-life (T1/2) of SHP615 in Plasma	T1/2 of SHP615 in plasma were reported.	1, 3, and 6 hours post-dose
Secondary	Number of Participants With Respiratory Depression	Respiratory depression, included the following measures within 24 hours after administration of the IP: i) Persistent decrease in oxygen saturation to < 92 percent (%) measured at 10, 30 minutes, and 4, 6, and 24 hours post-dose (i.e, < 92 % on room air for 2 minutes or more after dosing while monitoring [per healthcare setting protocol and/or the clinical judgment of the physician]) ii) Increase in respiratory effort such that assisted ventilation is used (bag-valve-mask ventilation or endotracheal intubation). Number of participants with respiratory depression were reported.	From start of study drug administration up to follow-up (Day 8)
Secondary	Number of Participants With Aspiration Pneumonia Reported as Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)	TEAEs was defined as AEs that start or deteriorate on or after the date of the first dose of investigational product and no later than 3 days following the last dose of IP. Number of participants with aspiration pneumonia identified as TEAEs were reported.	From start of study drug administration up to follow-up (Day 8)
Secondary	Change From Baseline in Riker Sedation-Agitation Scale at 24 Hours Post-dose	Sedation-Agitation was assessed, using the "Riker Sedation-Agitation Scale" (SAS) by the following 7-point scale: 7. dangerous agitation; 6. very agitated; 5. agitated; 4. calm, cooperative; 3. sedated; 2. very sedated; 1. unarousable. Change from baseline in riker sedation-agition scale at 24 hours post-dose were reported.	Baseline, 24 hours post-dose
Secondary	Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)	An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. TEAEs was defined as AEs that start or deteriorate on or after the date of the first dose of investigational product and no later than 3 days following the last dose of IP. Number of participants with TEAEs were reported.	From start of study drug administration up to follow-up (Day 8)
Secondary	Change From Baseline in Oxygen Saturation Percentage at 24 Hours Post-dose	Oxygen saturation at baseline was measured and recorded on room air. The investigator had recorded the oxygen saturation, oxygen delivery system and amount of oxygen administered during the study. Change from baseline in oxygen saturation percentage at 24 hours post-dose were reported.	Baseline, 24 hours post-dose
