Infantile epilepsy can affect sleep and the two interact. Decreased quality of sleep can directly trigger epilepsy, and epilepsy can also affect the quality of sleep. Epilepsy is caused by abnormal neuronal discharges in the brain. If an infant has epilepsy during sleep, it can easily cause convulsions in sleep, dizziness and headaches, palpitations, and twitching of the limbs, and it can also cause the infant to be unable to continue to sleep normally, so infantile epilepsy can lead to a decrease in sleep quality. Some studies have shown that both seizures and the use of antiepileptic drugs can affect sleep, and that decreased sleep and poor rest may also induce seizures in babies, so sleep quality improvement is also one of the management principles for people with epilepsy. In conclusion, infantile epilepsy can affect sleep, so once epilepsy is present, it should be treated in a regular hospital.
