Ictal and postictal central apnea: Integrating pathophysiological mechanisms with SUDEP risk stratification

Key Points

• To explore the relationship between ictal and postictal central apnea and the associated risk of SUDEP.
• The study integrated pathophysiological mechanisms of central apnea with SUDEP risk assessments.
• The relationship between central apnea events and the risk of SUDEP was identified, highlighting significant clinical implications.
