Scientists hunt for warning signs of sudden epilepsy death
NCT ID NCT02572297
Summary
This study aimed to understand why some people with drug-resistant epilepsy die suddenly without warning. Researchers monitored 1,072 patients to see if a severe drop in oxygen levels during or after a seizure could predict this risk. The goal was to gather information that might one day help prevent these tragic deaths.
