ICYMI: Watch the recording of the International League Against Epilepsy's recent webinar on How to talk about SUDEP Webinar: https://lnkd.in/eacEH36i SUDEP conversations can be challenging, but studies show that patients and families want to know about the risks. A common reason that clinicians do not discuss SUDEP risk is concern for provoking distress, anxiety, and fear. In this webinar, we talk about the importance of discussing SUDEP and give you practical suggestions on how to do so. Providing the facts honestly and openly can strengthen partnerships with patients and family caregivers. #SUDEP #Webinar
