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 ...

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 ...
