The association between postictal electroencephalogram (EEG) suppression (PES), autonomic dysfunction, and Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP) is not well understood. This study compared PES on intracranial and scalp-EEG and evaluated its association with postictal heart rate variability (HRV) and SUDEP outcome. The findings suggest that intracranial-EEG can demonstrate changes in autonomic regulatory networks not seen on scalp-EEG.
Objective: The association between postictal electroencephalogram (EEG) suppression (PES), autonomic dysfunction, and Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP) remains poorly understood. We com-pared PES on simultaneous intracranial and scalp-EEG and evaluated the association of PES with postictal heart rate variability (HRV) and SUDEP outcome.Methods: Convulsive seizures were analyzed in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy at 5 centers. Intracranial PES was quantified using the Hilbert transform. HRV was quantified using root mean square of successive dif-ferences of interbeat intervals, low-frequency to high-frequency power ratio, and RR-intervals.Results: There were 64 seizures from 63 patients without SUDEP and 11 seizures from 6 SUDEP patients. PES occurred in 99% and 87% of seizures on intracranial-EEG and scalp-EEG, respectively. Mean PES duration in intracranial and scalp-EEG was similar. Intracranial PES was regional (<90% of channels) in 46% of seizures; scalp PES was generalized in all seizures. Generalized PES showed greater decrease in postictal parasympa-thetic activity than regional PES. PES duration and extent were similar between patients with and without SUDEP.Conclusions: Regional intracranial PES can be present despite scalp-EEG demonstrating generalized or no PES. Postictal autonomic dysfunction correlates with the extent of PES. Significance: Intracranial-EEG demonstrates changes in autonomic regulatory networks not seen on scalp-EEG.(c) 2022 International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology. Published by Elsevier B.V.
