Comparative Study
A prospective study of levetiracetam efficacy in epileptic syndromes with continuous spikes-waves during slow sleep.
To evaluate the add-on effect of levetiracetam (LEV) treatment on the EEG and clinical status of children with continuous spikes-waves during slow sleep (CSWS). ⋯ This study suggests that add-on therapy with LEV is more effective in children with CSWS resulting from a known underlying structural brain lesion (the symptomatic group).
