Purpose: To determine if, and how, epileptiform EEG discharges in children were influenced
by physical exercise. Methods: Twenty‐six children with intractable partial and generalized
epilepsy exercised during video‐telemetry recording, aiming at exhaustion after∼ 10 min.
Results: During the exercise, epileptiform discharges decreased in 20 of 26 children (17
children had at least 25% reduction) and showed a rebound increase after the exercise (17
of 26 children) compared to baseline conditions. This exercise‐induced reduction in …
