Pocketcards

The ILAE-YES Education TF is working with experts in the field to create a library of easy-to-use Pocketcards that briefly summarise principles important to the up-to-date care of people with epilepsy. Simply download them to have these handy guides available whenever you need them!

Inhibition in Epileptic Networks

THE ROLE OF INHIBITION IN EPILEPTIC NETWORKS
Seizures arise when there is a disruption of brain mechanisms that normally create a balance between neuronal inhibition and excitation.
Such imbalance may occur in a localized region of the brain, in multiple brain areas, or simultaneously throughout the whole brain.
