Why the study?
Is the SUDEP-7 risk inventory score associated with heart rate variability in patients with severe drug-resistant epilepsy?
Is the SUDEP-7 risk inventory score associated with heart rate variability in patients with severe drug-resistant epilepsy?
The SUDEP-7 risk inventory score is inversely correlated with heart rate variability (RMSSD) in patients with severe drug-resistant epilepsy, suggesting autonomic dysfunction may mediate sudden death risk.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Higher SUDEP-7 scores associate with reduced RMSSD in DRE; hypothesis-generating for autonomic biomarkers, needs prospective validation.
Novak et al. (2015) studied this question.
