DOI: 10.1016/j.clinph.2018.04.550
Abstract: Introduction Epilepsy patients are often susceptible to cardiorespiratory adverse events during and immediately after the seizure. Unwitnessed seizures during sleep are associated with the highest rate of SUDEP - a common cause of mortality in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroscience.2020.11.029
Abstract: Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is the leading cause of death in patients with refractory epilepsy. A proposed risk marker for SUDEP is the duration of post-ictal generalized EEG suppression (PGES). The mechanisms underlying… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/epi.16491
Abstract: This study aims at defining objective parameters reflecting the severity of peri‐ictal autonomic changes and their relation to post‐ictal generalized electroencephalography (EEG) suppression (PGES), with the view that such changes could be detected by wearable… read more here.
