Abstract

Objective: DEPRESSION is the most common co-morbid psychiatric disorder in patients with EPILEPSY. Yet it remains under recognized and under-treated. For DEPRESSION SCREENING in this patient need to a convenient questionnaire for patients with EPILEPSY. This questionnaire has shown high sensitivity for DEPRESSION SCREENING in many studies. The center for Epidemiological Studies DEPRESSION Scale (CES-D) has been widely used in studies of late-life DEPRESSION. The CES-D is easy to use in most settings.Method: Two groups of patients from two hospital centers were selected to participate in this study: the control group and the experimental group which included patients with approved diagnosis of EPILEPSY, regardless of any type of seizures. Then all the subjects went through a semi structural clinical interview for (SCID-I) DSM-IV by one psychiatrist. Consequently, all the patients completed the CES-D 10 items questionnaire along with the interview. In the two groups, the CESD scale cut-off point was obtained using ROC analysis.Results: The optimal cut-off score of CES-D in the both group was ³3. Sensitivity, specificity, and positive predicted values in the epileptic group were 86.4%, 55.3%and 60%; and sensitivity, specificity, and positive predicted values in the control group were 72.7%, 68.6%, 38.3% respectively.Conclusion: It appears that CES-D 10 items is an appropriate tool for SCREENING patients with EPILEPSY, particularly if the multi-stage SCREENING system is used with other methods.
