Neurology, 2020
It was not that long ago that some believed there was little point in discussing sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) with patients. Why cause anxiety, it was argued, if the risk could not be influenced? The results of the landmark study by Sveinsson et al.1–3 reporting on a nationwide population-based case–control study of 255 SUDEP cases from ...

Neurology, 2005
To examine the influence of various factors on the risk of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP).The authors investigated 154 cases in which a postmortem examination was performed. Each case had four controls with epilepsy from the community, matched for age and geographic location.

Is the “unexpected” in SUDEP expectable?
IAR Journal of Medical Sciences, 2020We reviewed the article by [1] which presented a retrospective study of 220 patients with sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) from the North American SUDEP Registry (NASR), concluding that closer collaboration between death investigators and epilepsy communities is necessary to enhance the understanding of SUDEP. While the study is valuable, we

Pathology, 2014
Those dying suddenly on a background of a history of epilepsy (SUDEP) are seen frequently in the coronial setting. Issues around death certification will be discussed, along with the approach to the post-mortem examination, purported mechanisms of death in SUDEP and the emerging role of genetic studies in epilepsy related deaths.

Neurology, 2007
The most frightening consequence of uncontrolled epilepsy is sudden unexplained death (SUDEP). Population studies suggest a risk in the range of 1 to 5 per 1,000 patient-years,1,2 and in high risk populations with neurologic impairments this rate is even higher. How seizures cause sudden death is still debated.

SUDEP discussions with patients and families
Practical Neurology, 2012SUDEP is clearly a very important issue. Patients and their representatives (and in Scotland our legal system) would like consistency and clarity in how this information is conveyed. It behooves us to find a way to pass on our concerns in a way that acknowledges the needs, fears and circumstances of each individual patient and, where appropriate,of ...

SUDEP in inherited metabolic epilepsies
Epilepsy & BehaviorInherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) have an increased susceptibility for early mortality, including sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP), as they often manifest with frequent drug-resistant seizures, including bilateral tonic-clonic and nocturnal seizures.
