We share our research findings regarding slow-wave activity (SWA) evaluation in patients with Electrical Status Epilepticus in Sleep (ESES) compared to sex-matched controls. Slow-wave sleep plays an important role in memory consolidation and learning processes1,2. Many patients with ESES present with neurocognitive and learning difficulties3. Impaired SWA in sleep, in particular downscaling of slow wave activity during the course of the night, may therefore in part be related to neurocognitive difficulties in patients with ESES3.
