癫痫病人突然意外猝死

定义

癫痫猝死（SUDEP）是癫痫患者在良性情况下发生的一类死亡，并且没有已知的死亡结构性原因（即不是由于溺水、受伤、中毒和其他内部或外部因素）。可能存在前期癫痫发作的证据。如果尸检未发现其他死因，则确认为“明确的SUDEP”。如果缺乏此类检查，但排除了可能致命的其他原因，并且符合所有其他标准，则死亡被标记为“可能的SUDEP”。术语 "可能的SUDEP "用于有竞争性死因的病例，或数据不足以合理进行分类的情况。“SUDEP plus”一词适用于患者同时患有其他可能导致死亡的疾病，但没有证据表明其他疾病确实导致了死亡。心肺复苏阻止死亡的病例被称为“near-SUDEP”。

Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is a category of death in people with epilepsy that occurs under benign circumstances and in the absence of known structural causes of death (i.e. not due to drowning, injury, intoxication and other internal or external factors). Evidence of a preceding seizure may be present or not. A “definite SUDEP” is confirmed if a postmortem examination does not reveal an alternative cause of death. If such examination lacks, but potentially lethal alternative causes are excluded and all other criteria are met, the death is labelled as “probable SUDEP”. The term “possible SUDEP” is used in cases with competing causes of death or when data are insufficient to reasonably allow their classification. The term “SUDEP plus” applies when a patient also suffered from other diseases that may have contributed to the death, but there are no clues that the alternative condition has truly caused it. Cases in which cardiopulmonary resuscitation prevented the death are called “near-SUDEP”.
