Abstract

Of the patients with a SEPE score ≤3, some were able to become seizure-free without the use of AEDs, while for other patients, it may be possible that AED use can be discontinued. Patients with a SEPE score ≤4 have the potential to achieve long-term remission. Patients with a SEPE score ≥6 are more likely to have pharmacoresistant epilepsy.
