Groundbreaking findings describing the link between cardiac abnormalities and sudden unexpected death in epilepsy are the focus of new research. Sudden death is more than 20 times more common in patients with epilepsy than in the general population. Defects in cardiac and respiratory function are assumed to play a role in this phenomenon, but few studies have explored the underlying mechanisms and risk factors in human patients.
