Status of inpatients with pediatric epilepsy in children’s hospitals in China (2016–2021)
From 2016 to 2021, the proportion of young patients, population mobility, and economic burden on patients decreased, and healthcare level of pediatric epilepsy improved. In addition, based on the current observations, the healthcare level of pediatric epilepsy in Western and Central China is lower than in other regions, and the economic burden on patients is higher than in other regions. In the future, these areas require higher priority concerning policy and financial support.
