Prevalence of Active Epilepsy and Health‐Related Quality of Life among Adults with Self‐Reported Epilepsy in California: California Health Interview Survey, 2003

Abstract

Our findings highlight the burden of epilepsy among adults in California. CHIS serves as a model demonstrating the value of including questions about epilepsy on public health surveillance systems to ascertain the burden of the disorder and to guide intervention research and public policy to improve HRQOL in people with epilepsy.
