This paper examines the disconnect between established clinical guidelines for paediatric functional seizures (FS) and the real-world care models available to patients. The authors demonstrate that current healthcare systems often lack the integrated, multidisciplinary frameworks necessary for effective diagnosis and management of FS in children. For a neuroscientist focused on translational mechanisms of pain and placebo, this work highlights a critical challenge: translating complex neurobiological insights (such as expectation and learning in placebo analgesia) into accessible, evidence-based clinical pathways for conditions where psychosocial and neurological factors converge.
