Screening of attention and executive functions in pediatric patients at a tertiary epilepsy center

Executive dysfunction is prevalent in children with epilepsy, and associated with poor psychosocial outcome. Sensitive and time effective tools are needed, which capture executive dysfunction across a wide range of impairment. The present study evaluates the applicability of EpiTrack Junior® (EpiTrackJr) as a screening tool at a tertiary epilepsy center, and explore how EpiTrackJr in combination with a subjective measure of everyday attention and executive functions (EFs) may provide clinically important information.
