Predictors of epileptic seizures - retrospective analysis

Abstract

The article surveys the data from domestic and international studies regarding the evolution of thoughts and contemporary point of view at epileptic seizure predictors, considering data from experimental and laboratory studies as well as from clinical studies. The provisional epileptic seizure predictors classification is proposed. The characteristics of the included predictors is given, the need for direct comparison considering results of laboratory studies on biological models as well as clinical trials on biologic objects is underlined.

Keywords
