Read our Epilepsy research guide →This is a research study that gathers health information from people living with epilepsy or who have had a seizure in the past year. Researchers will use your medical records and information from Swedish health registries to create a database that helps them better understand epilepsy and how to treat it effectively. By combining data from many patients, scientists can identify patterns and improve care for everyone with this condition.
Epilepsy affects people differently — some have one seizure, some are seizure-free with medication, and others find it harder to control. This study exists to understand these differences better and help doctors choose the best treatment for each person's unique situation.

As a participant, you would allow the research team to access your medical records and information from Swedish health registries (like employment and income records). The study does not involve taking a new medication or undergoing special tests — instead, researchers simply review your existing health information to learn more about your epilepsy. Depending on how the study is conducted, you may have follow-up visits or additional check-ins, but the main focus is understanding your medical history and treatment outcomes over time.
