Abstract
Epilepsy is a chronic brain lesion caused by a variety of pathological factors. It is characterized by repeatability, transient and seizure, and is one of the common neurological systemic diseases in children. Seizures can induce structural changes of sleep and cause sleep disorders, and sleep disorders call induce interictal epileptiform discharges and seizures. The abnormal sleep structure of children with epilepsy is characterized by decreased total sleep time, prolonged sleep latency, prolonged latency of rapid eye movement (REM), and decreased proportion of sleep fragments and shortened sleep cycle time. Epilepsy and sleep are closely related and complex. Controlling seizures can help improve the quality of sleep. The normalization of sleep structure in children with epilepsy can help control seizures, thus improving overall quality of life and long-term prognosis.
