Can genes predict epilepsy after a Baby's seizures?

NCT ID NCT05361070

Summary

This study aims to understand if a child's genes affect their risk of developing epilepsy later in life after having seizures as a newborn. Researchers are following about 300 children and their parents to look for genetic clues. The goal is to combine genetic information with brain scans and other medical data to create a tool that can predict a child's future epilepsy risk.
