Risk Factors for Drug-Resistant Epilepsy in Children (PED-DRE)
Risk Factors for Drug-Resistant Epilepsy in Children: A Prospective Cohort Study
調査の概要
詳細な説明
Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders in childhood. Approximately one-third of pediatric patients eventually develop drug-resistant epilepsy despite appropriate antiseizure medication treatment. Early identification of children at high risk of drug resistance may facilitate timely referral for advanced therapies including epilepsy surgery, ketogenic diet, or neuromodulation.
This prospective cohort study aims to identify independent predictors of drug-resistant epilepsy in children treated at Children's Hospital 1, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Clinical characteristics, electroencephalography findings, neuroimaging, genetic testing, metabolic investigations, treatment response, and developmental outcomes will be prospectively collected.
Cox proportional hazards regression will be used to identify independent predictors of drug resistance. Machine learning models including logistic regression and random forest will subsequently be developed and internally validated to predict drug-resistant epilepsy.

Children with newly diagnosed epilepsy
Children with newly diagnosed epilepsy enrolled in a prospective observational cohort and followed longitudinally to determine the development of drug-resistant epilepsy and identify predictors of drug resistance.
|
Participants will receive standard clinical care as determined by their treating physicians.
No intervention is assigned by the study protocol.
The study is observational and does not influence treatment decisions.
