Nevertheless, no common system exists for the estimation of epilepsy severity or its impact on quality of life. Therefore, epileptologists lack the ability to make quantitative assessments of individual patients for comparison of care or for meta-analyses in clinical trials. This book on the Quantitative Assessment of Epilepsy Care approaches this omission by addressing the potential application of clinimetrics within the framework of epilepsy treatment. Clinimetrics is a fast growing discipline concerned with the quantification of clinical symptoms with respect to decision making relating to diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. These methods allow for the development and validation of clinical scoring systems. For example, the Glasgow Coma Scale is widely used. As a chronic disorder, epilepsy would benefit from clinimetric methodology to create uniformity and to allow for comparisons among evaluations. In addition, epileptologists have not yet developed assessmen | 出版日期 | Book 1993 | 关键词 | assessment; care; classification; clinical trial; development; diagnosis; drug; epilepsy; methodology; patien | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4615-2990-3 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4613-6302-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4615-2990-3 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media New York 1993 |
