Management Practices of Pediatric Neurologists for Patients with Developmental and/or Epileptic Encephalopathy with Continuous Spike and Wave during Sleep (DEE-SWAS): A Global Survey

This study aims to gather valuable insights into current clinical practices and approaches to managing DEE-SWAS among pediatric neurologists worldwide.


Developmental and/or epileptic encephalopathies with continuous spike and wave during sleep (DEE-SWAS) represent a complex group of disorders requiring specialized management.


In the absence of any consensus guidelines for its management, significant heterogeneity exists in the clinical and EEG diagnoses, treatment and monitoring in these patients with (D)EE-SWAS.


Your expertise as a pediatric neurologist is critical to understanding global variations in diagnostic and therapeutic strategies, which will help inform best practices and improve patient outcomes.
