About

Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is regarded as a leading cause of premature death in epilepsy patients. We aim to capture the whole process of SUDEP and near-SUDEP occurrence in patients with epilepsy, and expolre video-electroencephalograph (V-EEG) changes and marker. A Chinese multicenter study was carried out to determine electroencephalo-graph marker related to SUDEP to provide a scientific basis for the prevention of SUDEP in patients with epilepsy.

Enrollment: 30 estimated patients

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

• Patients with epilepsy who meet SUDEP or near-SUDEP diagnosis,
