Mashup Score: 17Improving Seizure Frequency Documentation and Classification - 2 year(s) ago
Background and Objectives Accurate and reliable seizure data are essential for evaluating treatment strategies and tracking the quality of care in epilepsy clinics. This quality improvement project aimed to increase seizure documentation (i.e., documentation of seizure frequency from 80% to 100%, date of last seizure from 35% to 50%, and International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) seizure classification from 35% to at least 50%) over 6 months. Methods We surveyed 7 epileptologists to determine their perceived seizure frequency, ILAE classification, and date of last seizure documentation habits. Baseline data were collected weekly from September to December 2021. Subsequently, we implemented a newly created flowsheet in our Electronic Health Record (EHR) based on the Epilepsy Learning Healthcare System (ELHS) Case Report Forms to increase seizure documentation in a standardized way. Two epileptologists tested this flowsheet tool in their epilepsy clinics between February 2022 and July
