Relationships Between Seizure Severity and Health‐Related Quality of Life in Refractory Localization‐Related Epilepsy

Abstract

This seizure severity measure assesses constructs that are generally distinct from HRQOL, except for moderate and broad associations between HRQOL and patient's perceptions of the average duration of recovery time after seizures. Recovery time may potentially be a useful clinical indicator of seizure severity that reflects meaningful impairment of HRQOL in adults with frequent seizures.
