“…This raised further discussion as to the reliability of seizure frequency measurement. This topic has been thoroughly discussed in the epilepsy treatment literature (e.g., Baker et al [40]), but not in terms of NES. It was agreed that a spectrum of seizure measurement should be included that would capture aspects of the seizure behavior.…”

In May 2005, an international, interdisciplinary group of researchers gathered in Bethesda, MD, USA, for a workshop to discuss the development of treatments for patients with nonepileptic seizures (NES). Specific subgroup topics that were covered included: pediatric NES; presenting the diagnosis of NES, outcome measures for NES trials; classification of NES subtypes; and pharmacological treatment approaches and psychotherapies. The intent was to develop specific research strategies that can be expanded to involve a large segment of the epilepsy and psychiatric treatment communities. Various projects have resulted from the workshop, including the initial development of a prospective randomized clinical trial for NES.
