Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (5)
Proportion of Participants With and Without Diagnosis of an Epilepsy Syndrome
Understand the proportion of participants with and without diagnosis of an epilepsy syndrome, as described by the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) diagnostic manual located at https://www.epilepsydiagnosis.org/
5 months
Understand the Clinical Practice Criteria
Understand the clinical practice criteria used for specific syndromic diagnosis of participants with refractory epilepsy associated with developmental delay.
5 months
Clinical Practice Diagnostic Criteria Compared to ILAE
Compare clinical practice diagnostic criteria to those proposed by the ILAE and identify potential areas of educational need.
5 months
Understand the Time to Formal Diagnosis
Understand the time to diagnosis, from first seizure to formal diagnosis of a specific syndrome.
5 months
Unclassified Epilepsy
Evaluate if unclassified epilepsy can be grouped with common electroclinical phenotype features.
5 months
Eligibility Criteria
Participants with rare epilepsy syndromes up to the date of the most recent visit at the study site.
You may qualify if:
- Age ≥2 years
- Disease history of at least 24 months from date of first seizure
- Medical history of epilepsy associated with moderate to severe intellectual disability, cognitive developmental delay or cognitive regression
- Medical history of onset of seizures in early childhood (≤ 8 years)
- Failure of adequate trials of two tolerated and appropriately chosen and used Anti-Epileptic Drug (AED) schedules (whether as monotherapies or in combination) to achieve sustained seizure freedom
- Ongoing refractory epilepsy
- MRI and EEG data are available for the participant
- Participants (or their parents/ legal representative as appropriate) have provided written informed consent / assent form to collect the data specified.
You may not qualify if:
- Normal cognitive development.
- Any acute symptomatic seizures in participants with underlying developmental delay.
