THE IMPACT OF EPILEPTIC SEIZURES ON THE HEART RHYTHM AND CONDUCTION: A REVIEW ARTICLE

open access: yesЭпилепсия и пароксизмальные состояния, 2018
Epileptic seizures affect the heart function and can provoke heart rhythm abnormalities and conduction disorders. Dysfunctions of the supra-segmental vegetative structures are thought to play a significant role in the development of arrhythmic syndrome ...

Morte súbita em uma criança com epilepsia: potenciais mecanismos cerebelares? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Epilepsy is the most common neurological disorder in humans. People with epilepsy are more likely to die prematurely than those without epilepsy, with the most common epilepsy-related category of death being sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP ...

Severe, Non‐apneic Respiratory Dysfunction and Hypoxia following Generalized Convulsive Seizures

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is a devastating consequence of some generalized convulsive seizures (GCS). Recent work has focused on seizure related apnea as a biomarker of SUDEP risk, frequently without characterizing the adequacy of non‐apneic ventilation or identifying other dysfunctional breathing patterns.

Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy: Two Case Reports

open access: yesArchives of Epilepsy, 2016
Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP) is generally defined as sudden, unexpected, witnessed or unwitnessed, non-traumatic, and non-drowning death in patients with epilepsy, excluding documented status epilepticus. Reported SUDEP cases in Turkey are

Epileptic seizure-induced cardiac injury as a cause of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy: Evidence from pathological analyses

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Science and Medicine, 2018
Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is the most frequent cause of death in people with epilepsy. The detailed mechanisms of SUDEP have not been elucidated.

Preclinical signal for a disease‐modifying effect on seizure cluster severity with intermittent diazepam treatment

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective In epilepsy, daily treatment provides only symptomatic seizure control, leaving a significant unmet need for a treatment that affects the underlying predisposition to seizures. Here, in a first‐of‐its‐kind study, we test the hypothesis that intermittent treatment of seizure clusters with diazepam in the kainic acid post‐status ...

Cardiorespiratory cross‐frequency coupling biomarker for sudden unexpected death in epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) often follows generalized tonic–clonic seizures during sleep, likely resulting from impaired brainstem cardiorespiratory function. We used ictal electrocardiogram (ECG)‐based cross‐frequency phase–amplitude coupling (PAC) to detect cardiorespiratory disruptions, comparing SUDEP to non‐SUDEP

Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy: A Case Report

open access: yesArchives of Epilepsy, 2018
Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is a serious problem, and its importance has increased in recent years. It is responsible for the death of 17% of epilepsy patients. As the age of onset rises, the risk increases.
