Infantile Spasm, West Syndrome
Vigabatrin With High Dose Prednisolone Combination Therapy vs Vigabatrin Alone for Infantile Spasm
Infantile spasms (IS) are seizures associated with a severe infantile epileptic encephalopathy. Both cessation of spasms and electrographic response are necessary for the best neurodevelopmental outcomes.
