People with temporal lobe epilepsy in particular often wander around aimlessly and unconsciously after a seizure. Researchers at the University Hospital Bonn (UKB), the University of Bonn, and the ...

Abstract: Removing muscle activity from ictal ElectroEncephaloGram (EEG) data is an essential preprocessing step in diagnosis and study of epileptic disorders. Indeed, at the very beginning of ...

Seizure-related cardiac arrhythmias are frequently reported and have been implicated as potential pathomechanisms of Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP). We attempted to identify clinical ...

Abstract: Non-electroencephalogram seizure detection holds promise for the early identification of generalised onset seizures. However, existing methods often suffer from high false alarm rates and ...

Ictal bradycardia and ictal asystole, although well known to neurologists, have received relatively little attention in the cardiology community. Consequently, in certain instances, the true ...

More than a decade after her original diagnosis, she suddenly had episodes of losing consciousness. Was this a different type of seizure? By Lisa Sanders, M.D. “I’m feeling a little stroke-y,” the ...

Seizures can increase the risk of arrhythmias. Additionally, seizure medications may cause arrhythmias alongside other cardiovascular problems. Arrhythmias occur when the heart beats abnormally.

Previous studies on the utility of specific perfusion patterns in ictal brain perfusion SPECT for predicting the outcome of temporal lobe epilepsy surgery used qualitative visual pattern ...

Introduction Status epilepticus (SE) is a common life-threatening neurological emergency that can cause long-term impairments. Overall outcomes remain poor. Major efforts are required to clarify the ...

Department of Anesthesiology, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA, United States Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) accounts for the deaths of 8–17% of patients with epilepsy.

Interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs), also known as interictal spikes, are large intermittent electrophysiological events observed between seizures in patients with epilepsy. Although they occur ...
