Abstract : In epileptic patients recurrence of seizure is a concern and its prognosis is important. Getting seizure freedom is necessary for the patients to maintain a normal risk free life. Even though, the pharmacological treatment provides 60-70% reduction in seizures over prolonged treatment, the concerns of recurrence remains. In this review we are analysing the common psychological and physiological complications associated with epilepsy. Also analysing the use of point of care (POC) systems for seizure prognosis. In addition, the future possibilities for developing indigenous affordable and accessible technologies for seizure prognosis are analysed. © 2017, Pharmainfo Publications. All rights reserved.
