Study Summary

Fifty-eight percent of children with new-onset epilepsy do not take their antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) as prescribed (i.e., non-adherence). Non-adherence, which is modifiable, is associated with continued seizures, mortality, poor quality of life, and high healthcare costs. There are no adherence interventions for young children with epilepsy and their families; thus, the current proposal examines a family-based behavioral treatment focused on improving epilepsy knowledge and problem-solving around barriers to adherence in young children with epilepsy and their families with the goal of improving adherence and ultimately, seizures and quality of life. It is hypothesized that children with newly diagnosed epilepsy and their families who participate in the problem-solving intervention will have significant improvements on adherence compared to those in the education only intervention.
