Abstract:
Objective? To explore the effects of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) on negative emotion and medication compliance in school-age children with epilepsy. Methods? Totally 68 school-age children with epilepsy hospitalized from May 2017 to June 2018 were selected by convenient sampling. The children admitted between May and November 2017 were included into the control group (n=34), and the children admitted from December 2017 to June 2018 were included into the intervention group (n=34). Patients in the control group received conventional nursing care, while patients in the intervention group received CBT on this basis. The Screen for Child Anxiety Related Emotional Disorders (SCARED), Depression Self-Rating Scale for Children (DSRSC) and Medication Compliance Questionnaire were used to evaluate the children before and 2 months after intervention. Results? The SCARED and DSRSC scores of the intervention group were lower than those of the control group, and there was statistically significant difference between the two groups (P＜0.05). The Medication Compliance Questionnaire score of the intervention group was higher than that of the control group, and there was statistically significant difference between the two groups (P＜ 0.05). Conclusions? CBT can improve the negative emotion and medication compliance of school-age children with epilepsy.
