SUDEP is the sudden, unexpected death of someone with epilepsy, but who was otherwise healthy, and for whom no other cause of death can be found. Because of its nature, the cause of death in SUDEP is unknown, but researchers are beginning to develop a better understanding. This section explores the various facets of SUDEP and is intended to serve as a resource for those who wish to further their understanding of it.
