Influence of Risk Factor Combinations on Incidence Rates of SUDEP
In this analysis of Swedish population-based SUDEP data, we have identified a 350-fold difference in the SUDEP incidence depending on individual circumstances and epilepsy characteristics. Although somewhat old, our data should be useful for patient counseling about individual SUDEP risks amenable to modification and for case stratifications for intervention studies aiming at prevention of SUDEP.
