What types of seizures are common with CDKL5 disorders?
Individuals with CDKL5 have a wide variety of seizures. Sometimes they can have several different kinds of seizures all in the same day. Others may experience only one type of seizure at a time, and then as they grow, the seizures type may change. Many children have seizures at night, and in their sleep, and many experience acute sleep startles (sometimes identified as actual seizures on EEG).
