Diagnostic criteria for KCNQ2 developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (KCNQ2-DEE)

Diagnostic criteria for KCNQ2 developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (KCNQ2-DEE)
  Mandatory Alerts Exclusionary
Seizures
  • Tonic, myoclonic, and/or focal seizures
   
EEG
  • Either burst suppression or multifocal discharges; diffuse slowing
   
Age at onset
  • <3 months
  • Onset beyond the first week of life (corrected gestational age)
 
Neurologic examination  
  • Normal neurologic examination
 
Comorbidities
  • Neurodevelopmental slowing/encephalopathy is apparent at seizure onset
   
Other testing (eg, genetics)
  • Pathogenic variant in KCNQ2
   
Course of illness
  • Abnormal neurodevelopment, with profound to moderate impairment
   
Is MRI or ictal EEG required for diagnosis?
  • An MRI is not required for diagnosis but is strongly recommended to exclude other causes
  • An ictal EEG is not required for diagnosis
Syndrome without laboratory confirmation: In resource-limited regions, KCNQ2-DEE cannot be diagnosed without genetic testing
EEG: electroencephalography; MRI: magnetic resonance imaging.
