Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy [PDF]

Indian Journal of Medical Research, 2017
People with epilepsy have increased risk of premature death, and their life expectancy may reduce by 2-10 yr. Population- and hospital-based studies have shown that the excess mortality in epilepsy is not entirely explained by deaths directly attributable to epilepsy such as accidents and drowning during a seizure.

Seizure Clusters, Seizure Severity Markers, and SUDEP Risk

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
Rationale: Seizure clusters may be related to Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP). Two or more generalized convulsive seizures (GCS) were captured during video electroencephalography in 7/11 (64%) patients with monitored SUDEP in the MORTEMUS ...

Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy [PDF]

Neurology Clinical Practice, 2012
A 57-year-old man with severe mental retardation and epilepsy was found unresponsive. The primary caretaker said that he was on the toilet, rolled his eyes, and stopped breathing. She did not witness either generalized tonic-clonic seizures or trauma. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation was initiated by family members; paramedics found him in asystole.

Automated Analysis of Risk Factors for Postictal Generalized EEG Suppression

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
Rationale: Currently, there is some ambiguity over the role of postictal generalized electro-encephalographic suppression (PGES) as a biomarker in sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP).

The fundamental need for unifying phenotypes in sudden unexpected pediatric deaths

Frontiers in Medicine, 2023
A definitive, authoritative approach to evaluate the causes of unexpected, and ultimately unexplained, pediatric deaths remains elusive, relegating final conclusions to diagnoses of exclusion in the vast majority of cases.

The application of SUDEP in forensic diagnosis: a mini review

Frontiers in Neurology, 2023
In the epilepsy population, the risk of sudden death from epilepsy is rare but is ~24 times greater than the risk of sudden death from other causes. Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) has been widely recognized in clinical studies.

Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy [PDF]

Neurology, 2021
To develop and validate a tool for individualized prediction of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) risk, we reanalyzed data from 1 cohort and 3 case-control studies undertaken from 1980 through 2005.We entered 1,273 epilepsy cases (287 SUDEP, 986 controls) and 22 clinical predictor variables into a Bayesian logistic regression model.Cross ...

Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy [PDF]

Postgraduate Medical Journal, 1999
Summary The majority of persons with epilepsy develop lasting remission from seizures, although mortality is significantly greater than that of the age-matched general population. Of the deaths that are thought to be directly related to seizures, sudden unexpected death in epilepsy is probably the commonest category; more so than status ...

Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy

Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2010
Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is a significant cause of death for people with epilepsy. Recent research suggests that multiple factors may contribute and that both cardiac and respiratory mechanisms are involved. Both human and animal data suggest that specific genetic factors might play a role in some cases.

Sudden unexpected, unexplained death in epilepsy autopsied patients [PDF]

Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2001
Sudden unexpected, unexplained death in epilepsy (SUDEP) has been reported to be responsible for 2 to 17% of all deaths in patients with epilepsy. This study was conducted to determine the circumstances of SUDEP and the autopsy findings in these patients.
