Sleep is a restorative balm for many, often less so for people with epilepsy. Complex bidirectional interactions between sleep and epilepsy can be detrimental to sleep, epilepsy and those affected.

Randomized clinical trials of sleep interventions in epilepsy populations are few, yet warranted, given the effects of sleep dysfunction on quality of life and the risk of SUDEP in people with epilepsy.
