Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- % of patients with ILAE grading [3 years]
The grading made by ILAE for the classification of outcome with respect to epileptic seizures following epilepsy surgery. It contains a total of 6 levels. The higher the level, the worse the result. We will count the percentage of patients at each level.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- IQ [3 years]
Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence(WPPSI-III),Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC-IV) and Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS-IV),3 scales will be used for different ages to measure IQ. Higher scores mean better outcomes.
- Quality of Life: QOLIE-31 [3 years]
QOLIE-31 is suitable for patients 14 years and older. QOLCE-76 is applied to patients aged 2-13 by parents.
