Abstract

Background and Objectives: EPILEPSY is a chronic condition results in SEIZURE and leads to debilitating conditions in patients. EPILEPSY SELF-management behaviors include activities to manage the disease. The aim of this study was to assess SELF-management behaviors and its correlation with SEIZURE frequency in patients with EPILEPSY.Materials and Methods: In this correlation study, 120 patients with EPILEPSY were selected from IRAN EPILEPSY Association using convenience sampling method. Data were collected using a demographic checklist, Dilorio’s EPILEPSY SELF-management behaviors scale and a checklist to record the number of SEIZUREs. Data were analyzed in the SPSS-16 using the correlation coefficient.Results: The mean score of the SELF-management behaviors was 118.05±21.54. The highest score was in the area of SEIZURE MANAGEMENT (79.9) and the lowest score was in the area of drug MANAGEMENT (57.56). There was a significant relationship between the EPILEPSY SELF-management behaviors and the frequency of SEIZUREs in patients with EPILEPSY (r=-0.3; P<0.001).Conclusion: The frequency of SELF-management behaviors was moderate. In patients with higher SELF-management behaviors score, SEIZUREs frequency was found to be lower.
