A minority of 2.7% reported that they counseled all of their patients on <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">SUDEP<\/jats:styled-content>, 8.7% counseled most of the time (50\u201390%), 20.8% sometimes (10\u201349%), 44.5% rarely (1\u20139%), and 23.3% reported not counseling about <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">SUDEP<\/jats:styled-content> at all. In contrast, 92.9% reported that they counseled all patients about driving restrictions and 81.5% about risks in daily life activities. Suicidal ideations were discussed in 59.0% for some and in 3.3% for all patients, whereas 35.1% of respondents reported never discussing suicidal ideations.

Both are not discussed at all by a substantial proportion of neurologists and neuropediatricians. This is in contrast to ubiquitous education about driving restrictions. Dissemination of knowledge among physicians about potential preventive strategies might increase the likelihood of discussion. Clinical practice guidelines are welcomed by the majority of physicians in this
