Abstract

The Integrated Epilepsy Classification was recently proposed to merge the 2017 International League Against Epilepsy classification and the four-dimensional epilepsy classification updated in 2019. The efforts in developing the concept of an Integrated Epilepsy Classification scheme are encouraging. However, consideration of brain age, validation in contexts that differ in socioeconomic status and with poor healthcare infrastructure, and incorporation of a team-based approach are necessary. These advancements allow for better clinical management of people with epilepsy and empower people with epilepsy globally.
