Overview
An ECG in patients presenting with seizure is very crucial to prevent sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). Important signs to look for are, ST depression, T wave inversion, heart block, prolonged QT interval, Brugada Syndrome.
Electrocardiogram
An ECG in patients presenting with seizure is very crucial to prevent sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). Important signs to look for are:[1][2]
