Bidirectional interactions between sleep, seizures, and epilepsy remain incompletely understood. Evidence from animal models and people with focal epilepsy suggest that seizures may engage mechanisms of memory consolidation during post-ictal sleep to reinforce and strengthen synaptic connections within the pathological networks that generates seizures, termed seizure-related consolidation (SRC). Human studies of post-ictal sleep changes supportive of SRC, however, are limited by small sample size and restricted observations of post-ictal sleep. We investigated the interplay between seizures and sleep by analyzing sleep-wake and seizure catalogs derived from continuous local field potential (LFP) recordings in 11 people (6 males and 5 females) with drug-resistant focal epilepsy implanted with novel investigational devices and living in their natural environments. Our findings demonstrate that post-ictal rapid-eye-movement sleep duration is reduced, whereas slow-wave sleep duration, slow-wave LFP spectral power and waveform slope are increased compared to inter-ictal nights without preceding seizures. The most significant changes localize to the epileptogenic networks generating the participants' habitual seizures. These results reveal parallels between SRC and physiological memory consolidation, providing novel insights into the potential role of post-ictal sleep in strengthening epileptic neural engrams, and may have implications for targeted disruption of post-ictal sleep and SRC in focal epilepsy.Significance Statement This study uses long-term intracranial local field potential (LFP) recordings to investigate the relationship between seizures and sleep in epilepsy. The post-ictal slow-wave sleep duration, spectral power, and waveform slope are increased compared to inter-ictal. Post-ictal rapid-eye-movement sleep duration is reduced. These changes are most significant within the epileptogenic networks that generate the participants habitual seizures. While this study cannot directly elucidate the mechanism involved in post-ictal sleep modulation, the study results are consistent with post-ictal sleep reinforcing pathological seizure networks through a process similar to physiological memory consolidation, here termed seizure-related consolidation (SRC). These results provide novel insights into the potential role of post-ictal sleep in epilepsy, with implications for potential targeted disruption of post-ictal sleep and SRC.
