癫痫儿童的心理行为问题

Psychological and Behavioral Problems of Children with Epilepsy

癫痫是一种涉及神经、精神、心理行为等多个层面的儿童神经系统常见慢性疾病。药物的应用、疾病认知的局限性,甚至家长的忽视,往往使得癫痫患儿较正常儿童更易出现心理行为问题。长久以来,人们对于癫痫治疗的关注点在于药物治疗、控制癫痫的发作,却忽视了神经、发育行为及心理多个层面的综合管理。深入了解患儿的心理状态,进而早期发现癫痫患儿的心理行为问题,随之给予积极的干预及治疗,最终改善患儿的生活质量及远期预后。

Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disease in children which involves neurological, psychologi- cal and behavioral characters. Children with epilepsy are more likely to suffer from psychological behavior problems due to the application of drugs, limitations of disease cognition and the ignorance of parents. For a long time, in order to control the epileptic seizure, we focused on the medicine rather than the comprehensive management of neurogy, psychology and behavior. On the basis of knowing the psychological status of patients, we can discover the psychological be- havior problems early, and take measures to intervene the progression of the disease to improve the quality of life and long-time prognosis in patients with epilepsy eventually.
