Abstract:
Telemedicine is a method of health care delivery well suited for epilepsy care, where there is an insufficient supply of trained specialists. The telemedicine "Hub and Spoke" approach allows patients to visit their local health clinic ('Spokes') to establish appropriate care and monitoring for their seizure disorder or epilepsy, and remotely connect with epileptologists or neurologists at centralized centers of expertise ('Hubs'). The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in an expansion of telemedicine capabilities and use, with favorable patient and provider experience and outcomes, allowing for its wide scale adoption beyond COVID-19.

Seizures: Classification
Seizures are typically classified into two main categories: focal and generalized seizures.
Focal Seizures
Focal seizures originate from specific regions of the brain. These seizures are further sub-classified into two types:
Antiepileptic Drugs: Modulators of Neurotransmitter Release Mediated by SV2A Protein
SV2A is a transmembrane glycoprotein located predominantly in the brain, modulating the release of neurotransmitters for neuronal communication. Both levetiracetam and brivaracetam exhibit a high affinity for...
Antiepileptic Drugs: Sodium Channel Blockers
Sodium channel blockers modulate ion channels, particularly voltage-gated sodium channels. They block only sodium ion movement.
