Pediatric Epilepsy and Complex Neurologic Disorders

Children with epilepsy or complex neurologic disorders often need more than symptom control alone. In Shanghai, major pediatric centers can combine pediatric neurology, EEG and imaging review, developmental assessment, inpatient observation, and longer-term follow-up for recurrent seizures, encephalitis-related problems, and difficult neurologic conditions.
