Heart and brain tests in children with neurological conditions
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at heart health in children with brain or nerve conditions like epilepsy, stroke, or migraine. It uses simple, safe tests to see if heart problems are linked to these conditions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at how epilepsy and seizure medications affect the heart's rhythm control in children. It uses non-invasive tests (heart rate variability and QT interval) to measure heart health. The results may help doctors understand and manage heart risks in children with epilepsy.
This study checks whether genetic markers are linked to heart rhythm problems in people with epilepsy or seizure-related events, and in some close relatives. It may help doctors better spot who is at risk for dangerous heart rhythm issues.
This study uses advanced health data to predict how heart and brain conditions may progress. It aims to help doctors provide better care for people with these diseases.
This study uses MRI scans to look at heart problems in babies and children. It may help doctors understand the heart's structure better without using X-rays.
This study follows children with severe heart problems born recently to see how their brain development progresses. It helps doctors understand what support these children might need as they grow.
