OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to explore the prevalence and predictors of limitations causing disability in patients treated for seizures or epilepsy compared with patients without epilepsy.
METHODS: This was a retrospective cross-sectional study using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). We included all participants ≥20 years old for 2013-2018. We classified patients as having epilepsy if they reported taking at least one prescription medication to treat seizures or epilepsy. Physical, mental, and social limitations were determined from interview questions. We report the prevalence of any limitation and total number of limitations for participants without vs. with epilepsy using serial negative binomial regressions and severity of individual limitations according to epilepsy status.
RESULTS: We included 17,057 participants, of whom 148 (0.8%) had epilepsy. Overall, 80% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 73%-86%) with epilepsy vs. 38% (95% CI: 36%-39%) without epilepsy reported at least 1 limitation (p < 0.01). The mean number of limitations was 7.5 (95% CI: 6.2-8.8) for those with epilepsy vs. 2.4 (95% CI: 2.3-2.6) for those without epilepsy (p < 0.01). Epilepsy was associated with an incidence rate ratio (IRR) of 3.1 (95% CI: 2.6-3.7) in an unadjusted negative binomial regression. After adjusting for demographics and comorbidities, this association was no longer significant (IRR: 1.2, 95% CI: 0.9-1.7). Limitations cited by 40-50% of participants with epilepsy included stooping/kneeling/crouching, standing for long periods of time, and pushing/pulling objects. Limitation severity was consistently higher in patients with epilepsy.
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with epilepsy had 3.1 times as many physical, mental, or social limitations compared with those without epilepsy, and disability severity was consistently higher. This effect was attenuated after considering baseline variables such as smoking and depression severity. Our work implies the importance of structured mental health screening and self-management programs targeting mood, weight, and lifestyle as potential leverage points towards alleviating epilepsy-related disability.
