SUDEP Workshop – Epilepsy12 & OPEN UK Conference 2022

The Experts by Experience, a group of young people and families experienced in epilepsy, introduced this workshop by sharing their personal experiences of SUDEP (Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy) from a patient and parent perspective.

They were joined by Dr Elaine Hughes, Dr Rohini Rattihalli and Sammy Ashby. Elaine began by providing background information on SUDEP, before passing onto Rohini to outline a quality improvement project focusing on SUDEP which her team undertook last year as apart of EQIP. Sammy concluded the workshop by describing SUDEP Action's work, including their new checklist to help clinicians.
