Wavelet phase coherence of ictal scalp EEG-extracted muscle activity

Approximately 50 million people worldwide have epilepsy and 8-17% of the deaths in patients with epilepsy are attributed to sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). The goal of the present work was to establish a biomarker for SUDEP so that preventive treatment can be instituted. Average WPC of...

Description
Summary:Approximately 50 million people worldwide have epilepsy and 8-17% of the deaths in patients with epilepsy are attributed to sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). The goal of the present work was to establish a biomarker for SUDEP so that preventive treatment can be instituted. Average WPC of ictal SMA is a candidate biomarker for early detection of SUDEP.
