Effects of Sleep and Sleep Stage on Epileptic and Nonepileptic Seizures

Summary: Purpose: Previous studies of patients with epilepsy and animal models of epilepsy suggest that sleep increases the frequency, duration, and secondary generalization of seizures. This information is, however, incomplete.
